AquaMoon’s Reviews > How to Get Suspended and Influence People > Status Update

Sure, there's the gross humor and the wacky situations, but truth is this: I miss Stan. He's like the crazy mad genius advisor who instigates everything and encourages self-improvement through ways that don't make sense until the end. Much like Yoda or Mr. Myiagi. Things aren't the same withou him.

I DO like that Leon's family dynamics are expanded upon: The crazy inventions and the food disasters.

Using the concept of Manifest Destiny to justify sitting in the back row of the history classroom and making it a mission to read every sex scene in classic literature....it's smart and obnoxious and geekishly freaky. I love it!

This may not be AS great as Play Me Backward, but this IS the author's debut novel (supposedly). And, thus far, we're still looking at another 5-star rating here.
