weird, and kinda depressing, but good!
i love how creatively the author formatted the book; it was different and special, and really helped the whole illusion of being in this troubled kid's mind, where not everything (anything) is orderly and pretty and normal.
some sections i had to read twice though, because the vocab threw me off and so did all the references to random topics and songs.
still, i rather enjoyed it.
