This book is and always will be extremely important to me. Some books are just a little more personal and this is one of those.

Someone said I reminded them of this book, and I became instantly excited to read it. Now that I've read it, I feel like that person was insulting. I hated the protagonist, and many other major characters introduced in this book.
The story is about a boy, who is losing weight to wrestle this one tough guy.
The ending of this book was horrible, when I reached it, I screamed "REALLY", all this anticipation and you are giving us this crap. I was hoping the book would redeem itself, it didn't, in fact it got worse.

Years ago I saw the movie first and really liked it, so I finally got around to reading the book. Lots of differences between the two. For once, I like the movie better, but the book is a good coming of age story.
