A review by terryegreen
The Field Guide to the North American Teenager by Ben Philippe

4.0

Norris is annoying. He's definitely a jerk, but that's kinda the point.... Norris is a MC that spends his time judging everyone. Seriously he believes he sits about 143292 pedestals above everyone even though he is surrounded by morally superior characters (cough - Liam!!) However, Norris grows! Norris learns his lesson and becomes a better human! I appreciated the fact that this book ends in the middle of Norris's progress. It's a fun, coming-of-age story that briefly hits some important issues!


(Since this book's whole premise is based on using generic stereotypes there are definitely some issues, but [most of] the lessons learned outweigh the harm and show they everyone is so much more than stereotypes and initial judgments.)
