What do you get if you have Australian, Indonesian, and Chinese blood run inside your body?

Maybe this...



or this...



or maybe this?



wait, sorry. My bad. I mean, this...



That's not the case with Alice. Alice has the Australian-Chinese-Indonesian blood run in her vein, but she is not beautfiul at all. Her look is half Asian, half Australian. Making her struggle to fit in. Her look is too Australian for Indonesia and too Indonesia (Asian) for Australia.

Despite of her not-so-pretty look, she has an easygoing and friendly personality and with a little luck, she becomes Dylan's girlfriend.

Here is the thing with Dylan. Not only he is handsome, he is also the leading vocalist for a famous band named "Skillful". He is so famous that he has his own fan base who call themselves "Dylanders".

Being a celeb's girlfriend is never easy. Especially if your boyfriend has fans obsessed enough that she wants to separate you from him, even if that means you have to die.

If you were in Alice's shoes, what will you do?

Review
My second teenlit in a row. I must admit that I also enjoyed this one. Not as much as I enjoyed Fairish though.

I think the writing and the story were fine. It was quite light that I could finish it in 1.5 days.

The only thing I hate about this book is the font. My critic goes to the font used in Alice's storyline. I wasn't comfortable with the font choice, though it makes the two storylines (Alice's and Dylan's) easily distinguished.

This book is for the following reading challenges:
