MH: book!

So the library finally got the Monster High book in. And Mums went and rescued it for me. I immediately finished Cape Storm and started MH because, well, you knew I was going to, right?

The thing is, I'm a little less than halfway through it and... it's not nearly as bad as I was afraid it would be. So far, anyway. Now I was expecting some real crap, so I will say that my expectations were exceptionally low. I'd read some of her previous stuff (sometimes the recommendations on various sites or book-flaps lie. If you like Gossip Girl, you will not necessarily love The Clique. Your braincells might die en masse instead.) and while I might grudgingly agree her way with words is pretty clever at times, it's also one of those things that kind of sets my teeth on edge. There's no doubt she had a gig at MTV, y'know? (Yes. That was the least subtle dig ever. Shush.)

If you've read the book or read enough spoilers... ( I am... )

So while I would have preferred a book based on the Webisode universe or something closer, thus far my braincells have not jumped off a cliff just yet.
