We often forget we don't live in a TV sitcom world. That life for many of us is gritty, full of dark secrets and unpleasant encounters. In a world such as this, growing up during puberty, asd it wreaks its havoc, can lead to all sorts of uncomfortable, yet exciting encounters as we try to figure out just who we are. A reminder of my own struggle to escape such a world as this.
A story is meant to engage, to make you think and comment, and boy, did I comment. Kudos to the author for engaging his readers so.
