Kurzbeschreibung
Jade Ashton is a sassy virgin. In her private blog, she vents about "fitting in" a world where superficiality reigns supreme. Suddenly all logic flies out the window when she meets Novan: the former geek, who's morphed into a delicious songwriter-musician. They decide to be "friends-with-benefits". But it's Novan, with his poems and riddling passages on his own blog--which *isn't private*--that backs out. EyeLeash captures self-discovery in the 2000s, and showcases the colorful, intricate drama in two youths' relentless search for themselves--and what's really in their hearts. GENRE: New Media / Popular Culture / Teenage Memoir / Coming of Age / Dating & Sex More Info @ http://www.jessink.com/eyeleash.htm

Its hard to believe this is Scott's first book!
12. August 2009
Format:Taschenbuch
Its hard to believe this is Scott's first book - its a solid story with a mature writing style that makes one wonder how someone was able to get inside the head of a young girl, dealing with all the issues facing older teens and 20 somethings in today's wired world - until you realize that Scott herself is in that age group. Its not easy to write a novel about one's peers (self?) without sounding like 'Dear Diary' but Scott has done it.
While some wonder about 'another coming-of-age book' this one is different, its very raw, truly honest and is not a victim of self-censoring. This is not your 'usual YA' fiction - this is for those who like their writing true and honest - without looking back!
If you are feed up with stories that contain the tired old 'kids exploring love' and 'learning to let go' you will love EyeLeash - a bold, deep, fresh and relevant novel that could be enjoyed by a book lover of any age!
Well, well recommended!

Read With Caution, But For A Good Story
6. März 2011
Format:Kindle Edition
EyeLeash is getting five stars from me. I am fourteen years old and read this in two days. While it is sexually explicit in some areas, it is so the author can make her point across, which I'm for. Otherwise, sex in detail in a novel? Not my cup of tea, although the Gossip Girl genre is popular for girls around my age.
EyeLeash is just about a girl who's feeling pressured to have sex at an early age, as the only virgin remaining in her group of friends. What I think is insane is that the main character's BFF is dating a 30-year-old! And she constantly talks of her sex life with him (thankfully not in great detail). Her best friend, the virgin, is exposed to finding a used condom while visiting unannounced one afternoon before the said friend could clean up a bit. Gross!
The above paragraph will finish most of the ranting about what I felt should have been left OUT of the book. Here's what I think was cool.
1.The game Jade's crush, Novan played with his ipod. Ask your ipod a question and then hit shuffle. It could be trying to tell you something. I tried this myself.
2. Poetry mixed throughout the book. Jess C Scott can write both in verse and in a mature Judy Blume style.
3. That Novan did not show up at the hotel to sleep with Jade. It made her learn something about herself. Also, nude pics? Really?
4. The mention of virtual worlds online. Yes, this makes me a geek.
At first, I was mad while reading this because I thought the character of Jade was so much smarter than Serena Van Der Woodsen or any other slutty pop culture icon. Then I realized that she's just trying to find herself as much as all of us. Let's face it, even a smart girl, fictional or not, can make a mistake. But there are real nice guys out there like the character of Novan to kind of keep us in check. So I guess what I'm trying to say is, if you're a teen who purposely doesn't try to be like the It Girls, or even just a smart girl who thinks that you have to dumb yourself down for guys, read EyeLeash. Jess C Scott is the 21st century Judy Blume.

Fantastic Novel
28. Juni 2010
Format:Taschenbuch
An excellent book. The book shows solid writing--a bold, deep, fresh and relevant book that could be enjoyed by a book lover of any age! Teenagers must read this book. Why? Because it'll show you that what you write in blogs and journals, can sometimes end up showing you who you really are as a person, and what you really want. This book is a wonderful book as Jade is such a realistic character. The Blog captures all of her emotions and strife with and about Novan. There are some portions in this book which are very funny--they capture moments we all share as common experiences in our growing up years. The concept of this book, the idea, the topic--is fantastic.
