(Actual) Rating: 4 of 5 stars
First of all, I want to say that this book is really an amazing, good read! I actually picked it up by random from the library!
Basically, here's the summary of what the book is about. James (no mentioned surname), a 15-year-old boy who lives in Dunkirk - a small town in western New York. He's got no friends. Friendless. His family is not on good terms. The only person he's got is his brother, Louis - strong, tough, and all with muscles - and looks up to him like he's some kind of hero who can save the world. At least in his 'world' - until admiration turns to disappointment.
"But the main reason I don't feel like a regular kid is because I have to worry about so many things."
The book gave me flashbacks from the nightmare of my past, though it isn't true that it was a nightmare in dream when I sleep, but for real - nightmares happen in reality.
