review 1: this was my first 1-star book ever. it sucked, there was nothing twisty at all (o.k maybe a tiny bit, but still) it wasn't interesting, there were no good qualities whatsoever, and the only thing that saved this book from a total epic fail was that some things were actually pretty funny, like the character Aaron. But other than that, it was awful and I'm not even going to waste my time going into more of a review. Don't waste your time or your money on this piece of crap read.
review 2: Jeremy has a secret. When he and his mom moved to a new town so his mother can finish school, he carries his secret around with him, trying not to let it affect him except in his dreams, where he has no control. In science class, each student is assigned a meal worm to study and... more Jeremy ends up with not only a meal worm of his own, but with Aaron's too, the most hyperactive kid in the class. Through studying the meal worm and interacting with Aaron, Jeremy learns how to treat people when they are different and how to let go of his secret.This is one of the sweetest books I've read in a while. Jeremy is a typical boy, wanting to be cool and kind at the same time. I got a little teary at the end when Jeremy admits the secret he'd been carrying around about his father's death and was gratified by the ending. This is a good quick read with a lot of heart and very realistic characters. less
