LitPick Review
Unexpected Development is a book about a girl between her junior and senior years in high school. She faces major self-esteem problems due to her larger than average breast size. Boys leer and girls make fun to the point that she wears clothes that are too big for her to cover her curves. Then, she meets Jake Darrow, the boy of her dreams, and begins to gain confidence.
Opinion:
This book is ok for younger girls who want to learn about peer pressure and high school. However, the plot relies too much on the main characters flakiness when it comes to relationships; everything has to be thought over, over-analyzed, and rethought. The dialogue seems contrived and unnatural. Overall it is a semi- entertaining book that would be suited as a sub- par Degrassi episode.
