3.5
Wise Young Fool
By Sean BeaudoinPublisher Description
You want ninety? Fine, I'll give you ninety. I'll give them to you coming and going.
Telling the story of the year leading up to his arrest, Ritchie grabs readers by the throat before (politely) inviting them along for the (max-speed) ride. A battle of the bands looms. Dad split about five minutes before Mom's girlfriend moved in. There's the matter of trying to score with the dangerously hot Ravenna Woods while avoiding the dangerously huge Spence Proffer--not to mention just trying to forget what his sister, Beth, said the week before she died.
Acclaimed author Sean Beaudoin's latest offering is raw, razor-sharp, and genuinely hilarious.

“I think I decided to read this after Daniel Kraus tweeted it he thought it could win a Printz. I liked it... but only as a fun read - not much more. It took a while to read, too, on simple fact that it's a long book. I don't know that its intended audience will be able to sit that long. That negative comment said, I liked this book a lot, and this review is probably riding on the coattails of me having finished Grasshopper Jungle by Andrew Smith last night, and this not holding a candle to that. Unfair of me, I know.”
