seemingly perfect country. This German to English translation had numerous problems. The reader is almost monotone while character accents and voices don't feel authentic. It wasn't until I was well into the story that I figured out that Jenna probably lived in Great Britan. I didn't know until disc 4 if one of the story lines took place in the past or in the present. Third, there were many confusing plots, lack of character and setting details, and text choices that were difficult to belive or follow. First, there no other European country that speaks the same English as Jenna's country. Next, no 14 year-old-girl would believe a major movie role is won without having to actually try-out . Nor would she blithly go abraod with strangers without talking to her mother or stay longer with only text message approvals. I also find it unlikely that the same 14-year-old could not comprehend the definition of "discrimination" but immediatly saw that "traitor" was misspelled. Girls on blogs loved it, but I didn't. Not recommended. Girls ages 12-14. Show Less
