Although I finished this in one day, I decided to take a few days to see if I could write a review without spoilers. I don't think I can so all I'm going to say is that I really enjoyed reading this and although Lauren is a problematic character, she is also very thought provoking and her story arc is written incredibly well and felt very realistic. There is anger in this story, and pain and heartache, but also love, friendship and forgiveness. I can't wait to give this book to people.

Stereotype par Claire Hennessy

Excellent teen fiction read. Claire Hennessy is only 17 and is going to be a force to be reckoned with in the future.

Stereotype is about a girl in transition year (16/17) learning about life and love and trying to find where she fits in. She also has to deal with the fact that she cuts herself sometimes.
