2.0 out of 5 stars
Boring, Predicatble Drivel,
This review is from: Night of the Prom (Paperback)
"Nightmare of the Prom" might be a more apt description of this long-winded, tedious novel that (shocker!) isn't really about the night of the Prom at all; rather, it's a dull, boring, and predictable account of the events preceding the dull, boring, and predictable Prom.
Start with Barbara Vreeland, a grating Type A personality school nerd, add laid-back Michael McNally, her longtime nemesis, toss in an annoying best friend/sidekick figure, an inherently evil group of popular kids, and a few too many uninteresting subplots involving Barbara's editorials for the school newspaper and a seen-it-a-hundred-times-before class project in which students are split into pairs and must pretend to be married and plan budgets, and you've got a foolproof formula for a Sweet Dreams dud. Every element of the story, from the plot to the setting to the characters, seems to have been borrowed from other novels that did it better, so don't waste your time on this bore-fest. |
