I first read and blogged about this book about four years ago. I just re-read it in preparation for the Great Stories Club Grant workshop on the theme of "Empathy: The Cost of Switching Sides." From the perspective of looking at empathy, I understand why this was one of the selections available. However, I had to select three titles out of five and chose a different three. (Watch for upcoming blogs on those titles.) I still agree with my earlier review of the novel but this time I grasped more of the way the main character, Zits, learns empathy. It's a very good story but watch out for lots of profanity.
