A review by arionthemoon
Me and Earl and the Dying Girl by Jesse Andrews

funny lighthearted medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

2.0

I didn't find it enjoyable. ¾ of the book was quite boring and the style of writing is not for me. 

The amount of stereotypes, racism and homophobic comments made it hard to enjoy. 

I wish it went more in depth with Rachels story, the end was disappointing "she died" and that was it? It could've beed done better.


I wouldn't reread it. As for recommending it, I would say no but you may find it more enjoyable read than I did.
