My Brilliant Idea (And How It Caused My Downfall)

My Brilliant Idea is about a fifteen-year-old schemer, Jack Dawson, who daydreams in class and ironically gets the brilliant idea to invent an app that stops you from daydreaming in class. This leads to him developing a series of complicated events with other characters that eventually build up to his initial plan.  But Jack runs into some trouble, and suddenly his idea that will lead him to fame and fortune doesn’t seem quite so sure.

It was hard to like Jack, as he was so annoying. And other characters, the weird girl, an even weirder boy, the stupid dad, the evil teacher, and the busy mom, just stayed stereotypes and did not develop.

Too predictable of a plot with non-engaging characters.
