“The thing I like most about this is how the main character is totally relateable to the average teenager. With his rotten home life it's no wonder he's managed to become so creative in writing zines. A story about life, love, and hard love.

Yes | No“One of my favorite books of all time, it never fails to bring out emotions whenever I read it. There are so man interesting aspects of it and the small details bring forth so much more for the characters. So much development and adventure, even if the adventure isn't my usual taste. This book was perfect.”
