"Saying 'I notice you're a nerd' is like saying, 'Hey, I notice that you'd rather be intelligent than be stupid, that you'd rather be thoughtful than be vapid, that you believe that there are things that matter more than the arrest record of Lindsay Lohan. Why is that?' In fact, it seems to me that most contemporary insults are pretty lame. Even 'lame' is kind of lame. Saying 'You're lame' is like saying 'You walk with a limp.' Yeah, whatever, so does 50 Cent, and he's done all right for himself."— John Green

Wolves, Boys, & Other Things that Might Kill Me 
by Kristen Chandler


     "Thanks," I say with as much sarcasm as is possible to interject into a single syllable.  "I'll try to remember that."
 
     "You'll remember," says Becca. "Some things you can't forget, even when you want to."
 
     "You have no idea," I say quietly.
 
     "Yes I do," she says.
 
      Adults, I think. Spare me.

I fell in love with this cover, and that was the biggest reason I picked the book up.  But it is really starting to pick up.  From just the little I read, there seems to be a lot of different plot lines and they all feel like they're going to intertwine down the road.  I like when that happens because there isn't much point to a plot line, if all it does is pitter out.
