Not That Kind Of Girl is a fresh romance for the YA market. Siobahn Vivian knows the teenage mind and approaches it in a unique way with this one.Natalie Sterling is a good girl. She always has been and she plans to stay that way. Things all change her senior year of high school when she takes a wild freshman under her wing. Then, Connor Hughes becomes interested in her. On top of that she has student council, AP classes, and the SATs. Things could not be crazier. Can Natalie learn to balance a life with school or will it become too much? Can she remain a good girl with all the pressure?I'm going to be honest; I hated Natalie. Nothing about her made me like her. I couldn't connect with her and I didn't see a change throughout the book. In fact, none of the characters were likable to me. Connor made no sense. I didn't know why he liked Natalie and it was never really explained. Autumn was just in the background and she only showed her true colors at the end. Spencer was a slut. Nobody made any sense.The plot was good because it was relatable. High school is exactly like the story in Not That Kind Of Girl. It's a good representation of what happens in high school. The romance was also very cute. It didn't seem forced and I liked that about it.Overall, Not That Kind Of Girl is a good book. I had my issues with it but it was still enjoyable and very easy to get into. If you're a fan of contemporary fiction and cute romance, check this one out!
