Overall, this book was very different to what I usually read. This felt like a short outlook on someones life. I liked the style of writing.

Ben kept in contact with his father through emailing. His father promised that he would visit him if he made nationals in the racing game. Needless to say his father was lying and the truth came out as to why they had to move to a small apartment. His father is a gambler. He let his addition ruin his life.

Ben has crashed his moms car while he was on a joyride. The car had many damages that they couldnt afford. His mom also found out that he was spending money on her credit card and he got suspended for starting a fight at school. Everything is slowly getting bad very fast.

Ben is currently still racing online with many friends. He has found out that one of his online friends is a girl which caused many to unadd her from the game. He has found that he has a crush on her.

Ben is currently living a great life. He has friends, money, and happy parents. This turns for the worst when his dad leaves the family causing them to move to a different part of town and him to lose all his friends. He starts to develop a gaming addiction.
