A review by jennythenic
Skater Boy by Anthony Nerada

2.0

This book is everything that makes me (a Teen Librarian) hate about Teen Fiction. A decently developed main character and some ok supporting characters (Tony and Brad), and then the whole thing devolves into a booktok word cloud. And anything authentic about the characters’ relationships in the first third are completely gone by the halfway point. Also? Millennial authors need to set their stories in the early aughts if they don’t know how to write 2020s teens.
