Manicpixiedreamgirl

Annoying and navel-gazing, this seems like the ultimate in the male gaze objectifying the female in his life. It would be one star except I have liked other Tom Leveen books. ( )

I feel like this book was trying to be Paper Towns but wasn't. In trying to make Becky less of a Manic Pixie Dream Girl, Leveen seemed to almost reinforce all the stereotypes. That said, there are tons of teens who I know are going to just love this book. ( )
