If I could give this book a 0, I would. This is my least favorite book of all time, as it feels like it has no other point than to drag this one poor kid through the dirt over and over and over again, just to raise him up at the end and to slam him back down onto the lowest possible low that scene could have reasonably given. There is no hope given in this entire book, other what is then immediately smashed. I will never own this book, because of I do, I will not have any excuse not to burn it.
