2.5 starsI really didn't care for the majority of this book. The narrator was pretentious and I couldn't connect with him at all. The footnotes were distracting and pulled me out of the story. I mostly just tolerated this book. There might have been 3 chapters overall that I semi-enjoyed.Even though this book is the epitome of "everyone is fighting a battle you know nothing about", I still just can't justify some of the things the narrator did and how he acted at times. The s...ide characters were frustrating and the absentee parent trope was taken to a new level that was a little unbelievable for me. The one character that I thought I'd end up appreciating was a teacher but even his reaction in the end was slightly disappointing. I wanted to like this book and I thought the message would be really important but it didn't work for me.

Oh the feels for this troubled young man- makes me ache for the teens who feel different, alone. with no hope for the future. I got sucked into the mystery of why he wanted to kill his ex-friend and then commit suicide. Quick's trademark quirky writing with foot notes and blank-ish pages. The bright notes are people trying to help who make a difference. I hope hurting kids who read this get that message.MoreLess

I loved the book. It had me hooked for days. The ending let me down because it didn't give any closure to what happened, but overall it was a good bookWrite Review:
