Query: Used to be a fan

I used to be a big SB fan and I've read everything that she's ever written. Her last book was sub-par, but this one was really bad. This has absolutely nothing to do with the gay storyline. It was simply poorly written. The characters are not believable, nor are they well-developed. They almost seem like cardboard cut-outs. Jules has always been one of my favorite characters - witty, cute, supportive - now suddenly every second line is about how people will react to his being gay. It was overdone. We didn't know a lot about Cosmo before this book, and we still don't (other than the fact that everyone that he meets thinks that he has weird eyes). The storyline was really thin, and quite frankly, I was bored! I would gladly wait another 6 months in between novels for an exciting read.
