Liked It“Reviewed by Jocelyn Pearce for TeensReadToo.com |
“I was somewhat disappointed with this book. From the summary on the back cover, it seemed like it would have a fun, witty plotline, and I was extremely excited to read it. However, what I found when I opened the pages was a badly-written, cliche story filled with Mary Sues and their exploits. The book had a good, original story, but that was overshadowed by how shallow the writing was. It was fun to read, however, and the story did get better as the book went on. The main thing that kept me reading was the question--is he or isn't he? I just HAD to know!”

Paige and Anthony are two best friends who are both rather desperate to find boyfriends before they end up going with each other to their Senior Prom. When Max moves to New York and becomes a part of their social circle (made up of rich New York teenage children of famous people), they are both entranced.
One of them has got to end up with this super-cute and charming guy. Who, though? It all comes down to answering one question: is he or isn't he? If he's gay, Anthony and he will certainly end up together. The same holds true of he and Paige if Max is straight. Right? It would be too simple to just ask, though, so Paige and Anthony come up with a number of entertaining schemes to figure it out, from buying new clothes to asking him to star in a movie as a gay character. The truth has got to come out sometime!
IS HE OR ISN'T HE? is a fun read, although predictable; from the first couple of chapters it will be pretty obvious how it's all going to turn out. It's still fun, though, and Paige and Anthony's schemes had me laughing out loud at points. The characters themselves, however, are a little flat. But if you're looking for a few hours of entertainment, you'll definitely enjoy this book!”
