The Haters
by Jesse Andrews
I was disappointed in this book. I thought it was going to be a road trip and honestly, they went to three places. I must've had high expectations since Me and Earl and the Dying Girl. The dirty language also threw me off and I just couldn't stand it, it was funny for the first time but it was just non-stop after that.
The diversity in this book surprised me and I would recommend for that purpose. Wes, the main male protagonist is Venezuelan and he is adopted. You learn a little about his life and dealing with his parents not having time for him in their busy lives. His best friend Corey has a peanut allergy.But, does he really? I'm confused from the scene where he says he never had it? Like, what was the point of that?! I was hoping to see him break out or something dramatic.
Wes and Corey attend jazz camp in Pennsylvania and find out that they're not in with the jazz scen aka just not good and meet a new girl, Ash.
I recommend this if you like diversity and musical characters, but have low expectations!
