  • If you are outside the intended audience (teens/"YA"), do not be ashamed to read and enjoy this book.

    It's not heavy weight literature, but I'm enjoying it a great deal and I do find it quite intellectually stimulating. I'm 53 years old & I'm learning a lot from. It's making me think & it's enhancing my understanding of the human condition. I haven't finished it yet, and it's not above criticism, but when I'm not reading it I'm looking forward to getting back to it. It's got heart. I do think there is some wisdom to be gained by reading and thinking about it.

  • I like the title, it’s perfect.

    Required for 9th grade English class. My daughter doesn’t like to read. So, I read it. It was a great book. I’ve been trying explain to my daughter that there is nothing good about drinking alcohol and it pretty much indicates the same in this book. This book is exciting and shows how a teenager with lots of family problems and does not have any money can continue to fight through life and still have friends and success. Good book! Last, but not least, I loved the cartoons!!!
