While I admit some possible bias in my review, I have to say that I ended up loving this novel. I am not a member of the target audience for young adult Christian-themed fiction, but I picked up this book because Jedd Hafer, co-author, is an old friend. I was struck by the insight and the compassion found in this novel regarding the mind and experience of a troubled teenager--the writing was amusing and witty and yet touching and thought-provoking as well. I wish this novel had been around when...more
I really like this book, but to warn those people interested in reading this, it does have religious themes, which I was unaware of. But it was not overly spiritual, and it was really funny and touching.
Fast paced, funny moments, and well written but geared towards a younger audience than myself. Would've liked a little more character depth.
This book was directed at teens, but it was still a good read. It made me laugh, even though they satirically talk about serious subjects - such as separated parents, new step-moms, transitioning into college, girls, self-image, and self-inflicted pain. It will make you laugh and cry and will ultimately make your heart go out to teens in these situations.
I loved it and look forward to reading it again.

I just reread this. I'd forgotten how well it was written! This is, hands down, my favorite Christian fiction novel, for soooo many reasons.
