Better Nate Than Ever by Tim Federle

3.0

I'd heard such good things about this and I really liked the idea of it, but I found the whole plot so wildly unrealistic that I couldn't rate it higher. While I felt so bad for this poor plump bullied kid, the ending seemed such a copout - I wanted him to go back and face those bullies and not have this fantasy ending where he gets scooped up in a Broadway show. I'm sure much of this is written from the heart (and life) of the author, but I wish he'd made it just a little more realistic.
