Graffiti Girl par Kelly Parra
Just okay . . .
2.5 out of 5 stars. It's a teen romp that has bold characters but falls a little flat during the plot (at least for me). So slow-paced that I had to force myself to finish the book. Good ending but it could have been better.

On the outside Angel comes off as indifferent and sullen; inside, she yearns for affirmation and recognition of her art skills. Then she discovers a niche in graffiti art but an attraction to two handsome rivals complicates her life. I wasn't crazy about the author's writing style but learned a little about graffiti writing. Teen readers may enjoy reading about Angel's relationship drama and inner turmoil.
This book had Cliché moments. The bad guy thought he was something else. The stand-off-ish hot lady who in the end warmed up. The hero saving the girl in the bar. Just about the whole thing - nothing original and very predictable. I hated just about every moment. It was written for young female adults and wasn't my cup of tea.
