I got Practice House as a Kindle First book. It took me a few chapters to get into it. Then after about the first 200 pages I felt like I had read an entire book. I mentioned to a friend how it should have been split up into sections, and then, behold! There was Section 2. I kind of laughed about it.

In a way, the second half of the book was more depressing than the first, but it also held a kind of hope that the first half didn't have. Plus there wasn't the awful "girl drama" that was in the first half. That was the most real part of the first section - jealousy and meanness. I felt bad for everyone involved.

The book was well written, and though the ending wasn't what I was expecting, it was realistic. I liked it.
