Book Reviews of Teen Angst? Naaah . . . A Quasi-autobiography
Book Review: The Holden Caulfield of Generation X!
Summary: 5 Stars
Ned Vizzini has sharp wit, good writing, and the outcome is an excellent book.
Ned's advice for High School is great, and will help many kids. From his addiction to Nintendo, to how over-rated and expensive the prom is, he doesn't hold back. He even has footnotes that add depth and hilarity to all of his stories. He started writing articles for a local newspaper at the age of 15, so he gathered the best of his high school experiences, pollished them, and put together an excellent book.
This book isn't excellent just for teens though, even adults can enjoy it.
Ned's highly funny and original voice stands out in an ocean of un-originality. He's one of the best things coming out of this generation, and he's succeeding as an author. It's great to see that the art of writing is still alive.
5 stars.
Summary of Teen Angst? Naaah . . . A Quasi-autobiography
The events in these stories are real. Some names have been changed so I don?t get yelled at.Ned Vizzini writes about the weird, funny, and sometimes mortifying moments that made up his teen years. With wit, irony, and honesty, Teen Angst? Naaah . . . invites you into his world of school, parents, street people, rock bands, friends, fame, camp, sex (sort of), Cancun (almost), prom, beer, Nintendo, the cool (and almost cool), and more. A Holden Caulfield for Generation Y, Ned Vizzini is an original voice to be reckoned with, read, and enjoyed.
