How To Meet Boys (2014) - Plot & Excerpts

I bought this book out of curiosity. I'll admit I judged the book by its cover (don't we all). I thought it would be a fun little read, boy was I disappointed. It was not fun, at all. I usually like a quick lovey dovey read but what was this?!The characters were very shallow and childish. I'm seventeen and these people made me feel forty. The way they avoided and failed attempts at fixing problems, the way they are with relationships! Especially Mikayla ugh! It was annoying and painful to read, by the time I reached the last few chapters every ounce of hope for this book to be saved by a good ending was gone. I literally skimmed the last 60 pages, slammed it shut, and placed it on the bookshelf to never be opened again by me I give up. I'm waving the white flag because I am done. I never knew it was so hard to write a cute romance novel. I find it sad when I read better stories on Wattpad. I picked up How to Meet Boys by Catherine Clark because I am desperate for a care free romance book. I wish I hadn't. I myself am an 18 year old girl who has never been on a date, never been kissed, and suck at speaking to guys. So I always feel this connection with characters who are the same way. I was into the book in the beginning. Then by page 137 I just gave up. I couldn't stand Lucy. It was an actual hatred. I found her rude, annoying, and selfish. I skipped her POVs half the time. Mikayla wasn't as bad. But dear god YOU ARE 17! STOP ACTING LIKE YOU'RE STILL IN 8TH GRADE. The writing was also terrible. I don't know if it was me, but half the time I felt as if half the words were spelled wrong. Not only that, but the maturity of the writing was extremely low. I am so angry that cute books aren't being written as good anymore. I think authors need to read Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell because she did it right. Take notes too. Cath was that perfect mixture of nerdy/experienced/socially awkward girl. I would not recommend How to Meet Boys to anyone. I couldn't sit still long enough to read it. I don't care about insta-love (it really does not bother me), but what I do care is that it's done right. And sadly, it seems that no one knows how to do it anymore.
