Twisted- Tyler, a high school senior who is struggling to become a man. His family seems like a typical family which includes his mother, father and sister. Tyler has been put on probation because he spray painted school property. He takes on a summer job doing landscaping that changes his physical appearance. Tyler struggles with his father's relationship because he blames him for everything that has gone wrong with their family. He also struggles with school faculty and the results of a drunken party. He contemplates suicide and in the end confronts his father about his accusations against him.
It is an exceptional book. It will grab your attention from the beginning of the first page. The writers use of descriptions and grim humor depicts an accurate portrait of high school life. I first thought that this book would be a typical, a nerd student becomes popular but as I continued reading, it turned out to be so much more. This book deals with the reality of life. The main character deals with many problems a teen faces which include such issues as suicide, consequences of one's actions and family problems.
