Book Thirtyfive: The Astonishing Adventures of Fanboy and Goth Girl

The Astonishing Adventures of Fanboy and Goth Girl, Barry Lyga
My pal Albert had nothing but good things so say about this book, so I figured it deserved a read. Besides, it's a YA novel about a geeky high school kid who loves comics. What's not to like? Not much, really. Sometimes a little heavy on the teen angst, but then again, that's what it's like being a teen, right? (Sometimes I forget so easily.) Fortunately I was not picked on in high school to the extent that Fanboy was, but my heart goes out to anyone who was.
