#2 Scrawl

I like this book because it let's you into the mind of a bully. A lot of books that are written like this are from the perspective of the victim, so it gives the reader a different side of the story. In scrawl, a bully is forced to write in a journal about his life, and in doing so, he gradually let's his councillor into his mind. He comes from a poor house and has to survive high school somehow, so he bullies people. He slowly becomes a better person. I like this book because it's written like how a teenager would write it And it becomes more believable. It's like Perks of being a Wallflower But let's you into the mind of someone else. While talking about the characters own experiences, the author also talks about experiences most teens face, like peer pressure or being blamed for something you didn't do. It's relatable to teens. The reason it wasn't #1 is because there are many stories like it, books about a troubled teen. It doesn't have a lot of originality in it. But it's still a good book that I'd recommend to people.
