GoodReads book review # 5

Stoner & Spaz by Ron Koertge

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


This book is about a boy who is pretty much an outcast. He doesn’t have too many friends, has an over protected grandmother, and has cerebral palsy. He has an obsession with movies. He is a spaz in our society. He was at the movies once and while he was coming out he saw a fellow classmate named Colleen. She is a drugged up teen with a jock boyfriend that wears ripped rights, neon miniskirts and has a very broad range of tattoos over her body. They talk a little and his grandmother ends up giving her a ride home when she comes and pick him up. She climbs in the car and the first thing she does is stick her head out of the window and puke down the side of the car. When she put her head back in, she lays it on his shoulder. Right there, the boy has a feeling that his life is going to change greatly. The author Ron Koertge tells the story about two lonely teenagers that no one really cares about. They treat each other with respect like no one ever has before, like two normal humans.
