I want to give this book five stars. I even have the power to give this book five stars. Perhaps I will, but I feel like that special thing, that thing that really is just some stupid chemical reaction in my brain that says five stars you idiot just didn't happen here.
I love the main character. I love that he ignores the fact that everything around him is completely absurd. Not because he doesn't realize (a poor plot device in my opinion), but because he doesn't seem to see a particularly good reason to dwell on it. at moment you can tell his thought process isn't really different from the "WHAT THE FUCK" that the reader is thinking, but he just forgets about that and does what he has always done.
I have decided that I am in fact giving this book 5 stars.
The fact of the matter is if you have ever realized that you have not been happy since childhood you should go home and read this book in your tree house. I do not have a tree house, but I do have a loft bed and a messy room which is similar or I identify with Jasper. I also have a brother who sleeps in closets so maybe I can just relate to the book. Do not under any circumstances pretend to be an adult when you attempt to read this book.
