Just read this book - really enjoyable. I found it hard to get into to start with, for two reasons:
1. The narrator speaks in enormous, unwieldy sentences that seem to go on forever - I found this tough to get used to.
2. The narrative voice is that of a teenager, with all the informality, slang and non-standard English that goes with it - so this reminded me too much of my marking.
I also thought for a second that the book was going to turn out to be a typical teenage love story or something, which is BORING. How wrong I was...
If you haven't read it already, I would definitely recommend it.
