Review Detail

this book was great. i decided to read it because I like the authors style of writing, and as a teenager myself i feel like it expressed some of the feeling of how life somewhat comes crashing on you but feeling like you have to pick it up yourself. the main character seems to feel this and the writing expresses it well too.

having previously read Orbiting Jupiter (ABSOLUTELY beautiful but brutal story btw) i did make connections to it while reading this book and was confused that the colonel's name was danny and not ernie from orbiting jupiter. im still reading the wednesday wars and now im beginning to actually understand these connections. i love the way the GDS connects back to his older books, it makes it so interesting to read every single time.
