Teenie Book Report

Teenie is a book written by Christopher Grant. It's about a girl named Teenie who has to deal with not getting a scholarship, have her best friend turning her back on her, have a abusive relationship with a boy AND having his self-proclaimed girlfriend attack her. It's a ok book, but I just don't like it. I can't get much out of it. It has a good story, but my brain doesn't see any of the points. I think that if it was a little less cryptic, it be much better.
