Review: Bad Boy Unlikeable Boy
Rating: 3 out of 5

It's hard for me to like a book when I don't like the main character too much. Josh isn't a likeable boy. He has so much anger and hatred boiling inside of him and he lashes out and rages against everyone. He's had it pretty rough. His mom died leaving him alone with his dad, and Josh hates his mother for dying. His dad's a real piece of work, making me cringe every time he makes an appearance. Josh has a true friend in Brian's mom -- Brian is his best friend who is in the coma. She must see some good inside of Josh that everyone else is having a hard time finding. He's very fortunate to have his second chance at Shining Star Boy's Ranch. Though when he first gets there, he's anything but cooperative. The people running the place must've truly been saints with an endless supply of patience. I did like the book, and am glad I stuck with Josh to the end.
