AKHIDA (Horror, Super-Natural Thriller)
Well...this book wasn't what I thought it was going to be. If you just read the cover, it sounds like it's going to be about the trials of being a high school geek. And yeah, Charlie is kind of geeky, but they really should have used some truth in advertising: This book is about Charlie's coming of age as a gay teenager. Why hide that in marketing the book? I liked the diary format, but the book as a whole seemed too be trying too hard to be funny. And it was gratuitously graphic. I'm not offended by that, but some people clearly are, so be forewarned. Overall, I liked it, I guess, but I probably won't remember much about it for too long. Except that it was gratuitously graphic. That part kind of sticks with you.
