Beautiful by Amy Reed

I am currently reading beautiful by Amy reed. This book is about a girl named Cassie who moves into a new town knowing anyone.  Before she moved in she was a perfect girl who had perfect grades and did things that would benefit her and cause good. However, when moving into town, she didn't take any cautions. 

In the second day of school she met Alex. She is the kid that gets into trouble all the time and out of school she does things to hurt her body and does drugs. She made Cassie into something else. She influenced Cassie into something bad.  Maybe it's the fact that humans are followers and not leaders, Alex got her influence from other people as well. Therefore it is a long chain of things. Humans don't just learn by themselves, they learn from someone or thing else, or else the human race would be very different. We have so much to learn and think we have all the time, but really the time span is really little. We may think we know so  much but the learning doesn't stop. Cassie thought that she knew a lot and did the things she did and followed Alex into the things that she did. It may have started out as a normal friend, but it really wasn't a friend it was more of a partner and they used each other for loneliness. I don't why the human race needs a friend, but it isn't right because a friend isn't someone who would want to hurt you, because this isn't a friend.

The book would have been better if there was a plot. It was building up to something and then then there was no climax. The book also seemed very unreal. I mean its the second day she moved into a town and stayed ou
