It is ok, Im not sure if I like the writeing style though it is kinda all over the place and I had trouble figureing out what was going on. It may have just been me and my short attention span, did any one else have touble with that?

Hard to Follow

I found it very difficult to follow also. Do not like this writing style. And, personally, I am very tired of the dark and depressing stories. Can't we lighten them up a bit. How about a lighthearted and funny novel.

I, too, think that the writing style of the author is a little weird and hard to follow at first. I think I understood most of it, though. However, it doesn't sound bad- it may get better.

Ya, same here. Especially when they were on the football field and even in the bathroom scene. Its like they where doing one thing and the next thing you know he is in a toliet. Even though it was hard to understand, I liked the descriptive writing.

Finish it

The book does start out all over the place but it gets less confusing and turns into a good story. I would reccomend that you finish the book.

todays was better is much easier to understand what was going on but still not as clear as it could be. I'm being held on by a little string to keep reading, I want to know why he in joys such torture. I mean he seems in a lot of pain by the end he really could just leave them alone and be fine, but thats just my opinion and if that happened there would be no story.

Not Likeable Character

April 4 2006, 8:35 AM 

I find it hard to like this main character. It seems liked he wants the toilet dunking....actually enjoyed it. Craved the attention. Surely he can get attention another way?

I won't be reading the rest of the week. UGH!

i like the perspective.
yes its quite strange but im sick of the normal, average teenager that doesn't have deep thoughts.
i want to know why he is satisfied after a beating. i think its really interesting.
