I Am Not Joey Pigza by Jack Gantos

4.0

I am having a hard time thinking of what to say about this book. Firstly, I probably shouldn't have skipped the middle of the series, I jumped straight from Swallowed the Key to this one. Picking up what happened in between wasn't too hard, but reading through this book is. Much like the first book it does really well with the subject matter, but this portrait of a dysfunctional family is just sad, flat out sad, non-stop. I might have given it a 5 had it not left me so bummed out and flat.
