4.0

Obligatory 4 star. Read this again because it was trending on Twitter some months ago for reasons I can't remember. As an adult reading this, it really beats you over the head with themes, yet handles them very sublimely. I see why they made us read this in high school. 

I will say that reading this while under the assumption that Nick is gay really makes you understand the character interactions better than assuming he's straight.
