Thoughts
Cassie Draws the Universe is a gritty and thought-provoking novel. Although sometimes, this is not always appreciated. While the story is fine, the overuse of large words and literary vocab could turn away alot of readers, especially if they dont carry a dictionary with them or own an Ereader with
one built in. The storys chapters always start off (most of them) with an exerpt from Cassies notebook, it was a nice way to start off a new chapter and i enjoyed the stories and poems very much.

Cassie, the main charactor, is anti-social, impersonal and I really did not like her for most of the book. She started off Ok, but then she got annoying with her cynisism and bad attitude, by the end though I started to really like her again. The other main player in this novel, Amy, I liked far better. She was someone you wanted to know, kind, smart, pretty but not self-serving. Thier friendship is really complexing, It reminded me of an episode of Gilmore Girls, alot of banter and debate. I could not for the life of me imagine two teenage girls sitting and seriously debateing topics like God, semantics and the ways of life.
By the end of the book I had similtaniously hated, loved, and respected P. S. Babers writing style and makeing me think, and question things I had never thought to question before. Younger readers beware: There is quite abit of swearing, sex and violence but it all comes together to work with the development of the story.
