I would read it…just because I like the sound of the plot. Although first person writing style does bug me.

I’m sorry but even for an internet novel, the writing style scares me. It really gives a bad name to internet novelists. There is conversational and then there is pure fluff. I’m trying to understand how it came to be published because from this excerpt, it feels like it simply lacks.

I’m with Bobbie on this. Only Helen Fielding with her Bridget Jones books held my attention with that kind of style (and at least she didn’t sound like a teenager), but that was just a one time event. *shrugs*

Without wanting to be judgmental after reading just that excerpt, but I think it reads entirely too much like it’s been written by a teenage girl…a teenage girl who’s possibly writing Twilight fanfics. Without beta.

Honestly, I’d much prefer to watch this scenario, which seems cute, in a drama then read it in an internet-esque novel. Main reason being that in that particular style, I generally find I want to hear other perspectives occasionally.
