Unreadable. Perhaps the story is interesting, I couldn't get past the writing to find out. ( )

YALSA Alex 2003 Award. RGG: Boring, punctuation-less, quasi-literature. Not at all sure what the hype is! Sexually explicit language.

The choppy and youthful style of the book might put off some readers, but for those willing to go past the bad grammar (and what the implications of the fact that the book's style is "genuine" are), there is a lovely and real story to be had.

1 thing U must no is that this book has lots and lots of run-on sentences that seem 2 go on & on & on & on and change the subject all over the place & take up a whole paragraph which can take up a whole page & there instead of spelling out whole words the author uses single numbers & letters and 2 much punctuation or no punctuation at all 2 make it seem like a real live 10th grader wrote the book!!!!!!!

Perhaps if the 10th grader only had two fingers or wrote the entire novel on his cell phone, I'd buy it. But I thought the author was trying too hard to sound "genuine".

Alex award winner? Feh..... ( )

This was my favorite book from the summer of 2006. I took it to a cabin in the San Juan Islands we were staying at with friends, and I laughed so much that every time I set the book down one of my friends had picked it up to read it. The lack of commas does take getting used to, occasionally I had to reread a run-on sentence once or twice before I got it, but the voice that comes through when you hear this fifteen year old kid talking at you in your head is worth the trouble. I hope this author has more than one novel in him, can't wait to read his next one. ( )
