Wow. I love this book. I want to recommend it to all of my heavy metal friends. I want to recommend it to every high school boy that walks into the library. I want to recommend it to everyone who was once a high school boy.

For all that, the writing can be hard. Not because it's bad, but because it sounds so genuinely like how a high-schooler with too much emotion and not quite enough outlet sounds. It's written in emotions and lyrics and pangs. It's delicious. It is one of the few things that has ever made me miss high school, wishing I was a better friend, wishing I had known who I was just a little me. It makes me wish I knew who I was now, just a little bit more.

And it makes me want to rock the fuck out.
