I did not expect to like it, but found it really entertaining.  The cast was really great, and the plot is what caught my attention. I would have given it a 5-star, except I thought the singing was long in places.  Other than that, the movie flowed.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this book; science fiction/fantasy is not a genre I typically read.  It requires a level of suspended belief I am not usually able to attain, but in this case I was able to go with it.  The sex scenes are well written and plentiful, and there is a good supporting story.  Although the element of suspense could have developed a bit more, I still found it an entertaining read and would recommend it to both existing fans of the genre and those willing to give something new a try.

(I requested/received a review copy from NetGalley.)

I'll begin by saying I wasn't quite into this for a while, the first quarter or so, but then the story really picked up for me and I began to enjoy it so much. It's about Mindy, an 18-year-old who while questioning her sexuality falls for her former childhood best friend/friend again/neighbor Lucia, a very popular cheerleader who's straight, and a human... though not for long.

To get my 'negatives' out of the way: as I was reading, I had some issues with a few insensitive comments made, especially about eating disorders, for example, Mindy saying the cheerleaders were "probably bulimic" or "a bunch of anorexics", and "She'd never actually made herself throw up, but how hard could it be if supermodels did it?". And it might be just me, though, but I wish they weren't present, to be honest, and you could say that's a character defect, even though I don't remember any character commenting on that. In Lucia's case, known for being very outspoken and insensitive at times, characters would remark about it (and I liked Mindy's dad saying at one point, "We don't like to use judgmental words.").

And I could complain about how unrealistic or convenient this or that was, and there was something in particular that was relevant but never explained, but I didn't take it too seriously - I don't think I was supposed to. Honestly, the book was really fun and so ridiculous at times. There were mentions of/references to Twil... sorry, the T-word, The Walking Dead, Once Upon a Time, The Flash, Lost (I'll admit this made me laugh a little: "(...) much like Lost, this would not make more sense if it was explained."), and the witty dialogue is definitely one of its strongest points.

Overall, a really enjoyable and entertaining read for me with the right amount of horror, humor, and romance (and you can expect many sexy scenes). And even if I didn't in the beginning, I finished the book really liking the characters, they were funny, quirky, and had really good chemistry.

I didn't know what I'd think of this book, but I ended up really enjoying it. The story was very engaging, and some of de los Santos's figurative language was really, really lovely. Occasionally she overdoes it with the big words (her use of 'discombobulated' is just awkward), and the dialogue can seem a little contrived, but I found myself enjoying the plot so much that it didn't bother me. This probably isn't a book I'll read over and over, but I'm certainly glad I read it once.

I was surprised how entertaining and good this movie actually is. I bought it on a whim and I am really glad I did. The characters and the situation they are in is totally relatable for many women and the lessons they learned through the movie are really good. I highly recommend it. I really enjoyed watching it.

I purchased this show on a whim.  I really wasn't expecting it to be good.  I was very pleasantly surprised to find that it was very good.  Excellent writing and acting, and I wanted to see more.

I didn't think I was going to like it as I'm not much of a Paltrow fan. This movie was surprisingly good. It was an unexpected good watch feel good movie. The actors were very good and actually made it believable. If you want to sit back and relax, watch this movie. You won't be sorry
