I’m not really a kid but I’m writing this review through a family members account & I don’t want their name on here.
I’ve got 5 brothers, they all say they had to read this book for school (4 had to read it in junior high, one read it in high school).
I didn’t have to read it for school but happened to come across it on a vacation & ended up reading it on the plane ride home.
This book is very good & entertaining, however, while reading it I could not think of why a school would feel that it is appropriate for kids to be reading for a report.
I would never let my kids read this book while living under my roof (yea yea, I know, you can’t stop your kids from doing stuff but in an ideal world where this was possible, I would never let them read it).
For an adult that wants to somewhat relive their childhood, give it a try.
While the character is very hateful & kind of an ass, some stuff he goes through is stuff most people go through so it may bring back a memory or two.
I liked this book for the plane ride but don’t think I’d ever want to read it again. The character was too much of an ass & I’d rather not ’see’ him again.
