"Plotting how I could accidentally hit Trent with a tennis racket". "I accidentally on purpose kicked Bryce in the shin". "I thought about hitting him over the head with my lunch tray". Do you see now? I was going to give this 3 stars, but the casualness of physical violence throughout the entire book, is still bothering me enough upon finishing, that I have to drop it down to 2. If you think that is okay, try reversing the roles, so it is the male kicking the female in the shin. Kicking a guy, punching him in the arm, poking him in the ribs, threatening him with violence from your brothers - that is not okay. The one big thing nagging me about this book is that - it is teaching young girls and boys that it is okay to throw tantrums and threaten/use physical violence, in order to get your way or in reaction to something that displeases you. Supporting couple = better than the actual couple
