My Summary :
At a school where everyone in unique, Gretchen Yee feels ordinary. Even with her bright red hair, she's still the quiet girl who doesn't talk to anyone at lunch.Then there are the Art Rats, a group of popular boys. Funny. Sweet. Annoying. Confusing. Especially Titus. Titus is definetely on Gretchen's radar, but she's too scared to make the first move. If only she could be a fly on the wall, to find out what boys are really like. This is the story of how one girl's wish came true.

My Thoughts :
First time I've heard about E.Lockhart was from her book We Were Liars. That book spread around Bookstagram but I'm not interested to pick it up. But when I went to the charity shop and found Fly On The Wall, I decided to give it a chance without really paid attention what's the book about. And I finished it only in 2 sitting.
Fly On The Wall is such a light and fun read. The idea of the story is unique about a girl who became a fly and stuck in the boy's locker room. What she sees in there and how she sees things and telling it in a such a refreshing and funny way. It is not a twisted and complicated story or what-so-ever but I was quite addicted to savour every page. I flew through it and I finished this 182 pages in a short time. I think E.Lockhart suceed to make this book easy to binge.
The protagoninst, Gretchen is such a queer and witty girl. At the beginning, I was annoyed by how reckless she concluded about things around her and maybe that was part of the plot to show that she was wrong. But the way how she sees and thinks about things cracked me up. She has such an interesting way to tell story.
Anyway, I'm glad that I picked it up. It is such a nice change after read Odyssey and back to classic.
