Customer Reviews

Not too bad

As far as Young Adult novels go, this one was fairly good. Most of the YA novels I've read are girls drooling over boys while trying to fit in, but this one was written as a boy having girl troubles and fitting in troubles. It was refreshing. There is drama thrown in from all sides-- Bret's homelife, his friends, his girlfriend, his school, he never seems to catch a break. But through this book we're taught the importance of rolling with the punches and that taking the hard road has challenges, but sometimes it just needs to be done. I would recommend the story, but warn you that it's definitely not PG-rated.

MY FAVORITE BOOK OF ALL TIME

Hey everyone my name Is Darzak and I'm currently in high school.This book's main character is a un-popular high school junior named Bret.He goes through alot during this book including getting into fights,having crushes on girls,losing and also gaining friends and much more.This book is a must for any kid who is in high school because it deals with the problems that a regular kid would go through.I can't tell you much more because I don't want to ruin the book ,but if you want to know [and I know that you do] go out and buy this book it's an excellent well written book that any person who has gone through high school has faced.By the way the book Things Change by Patrick Jones is also a must have.
