Ashton J.’s Reviews > Stupid Fast > Status Update

This book has gotten so good since the beginning. This is definitely the best book I have read so far this year. The boys mom has gone out of this world crazy and there is no helping. Both boys are now getting along better which I think is essential for them to be able to find a solution to get out of this mess. They have just contacted their grandma who hasn't talked to them in 10 years, and she is coming to help.

Today the topic was how Felton all of a sudden realized he had grown to be six one and he was able to now dunk a basketball, and becoming a division I prospect! This was a very exciting to me because I really want to be tall someday, be able to dunk and become a dI prospect for basketball. These are the types of books that I love to read for these reasons because they all relate to me.

A big reoccurring event that is happening in the story, is Felton's mom keeps on going through these times where she seems like she's staring off into space and gets all pale. Her most recent occurance was when Felton came home and started listening to his dads music but he committed suicide a while ago. Felton is now caught up in the middle of it all and I can't imagine what he's going through right now.

In this book, the main character's name is Felton. He lives in Wisconsin which I thought was interesting. I am very interested in the concept of the book which is about him growing very fast. I have always wanted to stop being the small one, I want to be one of the tall ones but I'm not. I also feel really bad for Felton because his dad killed himself and he always used to think that his dad would watch over him.
