Teenagers are mean

This story is beautifully written and does a phenomenal job of showing the struggles of being a teenager who is a little different than your peers. When Nole begins playing Enix, he builds a character who he wishes he could be in real life- bold, courageous, important. When the lines between the game and his real life start to become blurry will Nole discover that he's just as important in the real world as he is in the game?
