Be More Chill by Ned Vizzini
5.0
This is the third Vizzini book I have read and by far, my favorite.
I guess the reason why I like this so much is because I can totally relate to the main character, Jeremy Heere. I didn't have Humiliation Sheets in high school but I did want to be Cool. The only difference between me and Jeremy is he got to be Cool and I remained a loser until the day I graduated and left that stinking cesspool of drama and hormonal imbalance. With my drama aside, I really did enjoy the novel. I loved Jeremy's voice and humor (this book made me laugh out loud a couple of times). The concept of the squip is new and fascinating. And that ending just caught me by surprise.
