the slang gave me a headache and it wasn't really interesting at all. this guy just likes violence. then he commits more violence. and then he goes and gets reprogrammed but instead of changing his ways he just gets sick after thinking about committing violence. and then he gets beat up by the same people and then finally goes back to committing violence after being un-reprogrammed. idk lol

I heard so many different things about this book and I decided to give it a try for myself. All in all it was a good book it picked up better towards the end. Of course you have to be able to get past all of Alexs slang and thats pretty easy to pick up. I am glad I finally read the book but It wont end up in my pile of books to keep.
