August 28, 2008: I think this book was okay. At some parts I did not understand it and at other times it was kind of funny. It was funny because all of them loved the same girl. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a little drama and a little comedy.

August 27, 2008: I wouldn't recommend this book to anybody unless you are really into plays. The dialogue is very confusing and is poorly translated. In my opinion, this was not a very good book.
