Review of "Summer Unplugged" by Amy Sparling

Summer Unplugged by Amy Sparling
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Short, cute and light-read. 3,5 stars.

Warning: May contain spoilers.

Bayleigh is a typical teenager. Well, at least in the sense that she can't live without technology. So when her mother finds out that she's been sending topless pictures of herself to a boy, she's sent to a farm. No phone, no laptop, no social life.

Except for the boy next door, who ruins the fields and is a nuisance to her grandparents.

In a way, I can understand that Bayleigh needs someone to connect to, and while Jace sounds like the typical bad-boy, he's certainly not the worst to be around. However, it just went by too fast.

I realize that it's a Novella, but even then, there was plenty of opportunities to remove some of her whining, to get a better flow between characters.

It's a nice little fun story. But it didn't blow my mind, or make me want to buy the sequel.

Would recommend as a summer-read about teenage-rebellion and consequences.
