This was a most enjoyable book. I loved it. Though i really hope he writes a sequal cause the ending... It leaves it hanging and give so many opotunities for the mind. This is a big win. Great job :) Keep it up Bill

Clever, fluid and engrossing. Life sucks story through the eyes of a seventeen kid on the cusp of adulthood, told with the perfect amount of hope-filled sensitivity. Great read.
