This book is so unique because it is told entirely in instant messages! The characters tell the whole story through IMs! I really like the storyline in this book, because the friendship that was vowed never to be broken is put to the test for each of the girls, but they each come through in the end. Lauren Myracle does a great job of making the characters unique and seem real. Zoe, Angela, and Maddie each have their own style of IMing and it adds life to the characters. It is fun to see, as the book goes on, how the characters change and mature, as if they really are getting older each time I read the series. This is a fun book to read, and I guarantee there is no other like it!
Also in the series: ttfn and l8r, g8r!
