Title: A Good Editor was Needed
Review: This book was required reading for one of my education classes and copious amounts of coffee were required to get through it. The author's intent was noble but the end result reads like a first draft,(a very long first draft)a sort of stream of consciousness, in an effort, I would assume, to be authentic and true to the youths' words. I had to keep rereading to figure out who was who. I found the writing very amateur and the profound realizations almost embarassing. These few kids are not an accurate crosssection of our youth society (as other reviewers have pointed out.) At least two of the kids has been physically abused and another has an acute psychiatric condition. I think it is irresponsible to call this journalism, and to present it as such. I probably would have been better reading as a novel. Also--Did anyone else wonder about the incredibly well-adjusted Chris with the perfect parents and the many details of his life only a mother would know??
