2.0

This book made me angry.  I loved the music from the musical and wanted to find ot the actual plot points and it turns out that the main character is a run of the mill selfish bad person. That he is crippled by social anxiety is incidental. 

Shoehorning
Conner's  ghost
into the plot doesn't fit very well.
