With this in mind, you can read it as a piece of fiction from its time and it's bearable. Finished in a couple days and cracked up at the ending. I'd call it camp-ish.

This was just... Not good. I finished it just because it reads quickly and I wanted to fulfill a reading challenge. There are what feels like more authentic stories similar to this ("Crank" by Ellen Hopkins, for example).zombiezami's review against another edition
