very obviously written in 2007, especially with its usage of ableist and homophobic slurs and how edgy the characters were. also feels like the author just really wanted to use the n-slur and found excuses to do so??
does dude have a thing for farting? he talks about it so much. like, way too much.
the columbine comparison was off because the columbine kids were not bullied, they were the bullies.
not great to have the alien language compared to hebrew!

It's still a good story with not quite unlikable main characters. I'm ready to continue on this series again as I just found out there's a fourth book (super excited since the author's writing has gotten so dang good with the Zoey Ashe series).
Definitely a must read for any time of year, but especially October. Who doesn't need a little existential dead and body horror every now and then?

amradio's review against another edition
Didn't think I'd want to drop a book after forcing myself to finish Jane Eyre and yet here we are
I swore I liked the movie but maybe I'm misremembering
The book is honestly nonsensical trash and that's saying something as someone who like the tv show 12 oz mouse
Just every -ism in a book and unlikeable characters I wasn't about to force myself to finish
