Catcher In The Rye/Tom Sawyer/Billy Liar mashup, featuring murder, assault, hauntings, cults, confusion and bullying all thrown in amongst the background of (ab)normal teenage angst and general fucked up shit with a fair dose of humour that you will all understand, because you've all been there.
I wrote it. Shameless plug.
I deliberately tried to make it different to anything I had read before, but with smatterings of my favourite books thrown in and I'm not a wordsmith so the vocab is easy to read and understand.
I have bought a bunch to read, Two I have seen TV adaptations of, so I know I like the story, and the third is well rated. They are all rated books actually, first two are award winners:
Neil Gaiman - American Gods (brilliant idea!)
Susanna Clarke - Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell (set in alternative history Napoleonic times, a world where magic is around but in decline)
&
Gregory Maguire - Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West (Dark and weird revisionist tone based on Wizard of Oz characters) Good for those who like satire, and love exceedingly imaginative and clever fantasy - apparently!
Leaning towards Bob Mortimer as I'm imagining it'll be light reading and funny, he definitely has "funny bones" but then again its another autobiography and I really fancy getting lost in a tale.
flowers for Algernon - Daniel Keyes
To kill a mockingbird - Harper Lee
I've read the Neil Gaiman and Susanna Clarke and can recommend both.
