I won this copy through a goodreads giveaway.
Jeremy Duncan, teen slacker, is going to his first real rock concert. (Gingivitis RULES!) It'll be an epic night he'll never forget (unlike that time he forgot to take out the trash and put away the laundry). But Tim is donating his bone marrow for his cancer- ridden mother on the same night. In support, Jeremy and Hector want to have a rockin' time at the Gingivitis concert... for Tim.
My Thoughts: I enjoyed this read, it brought me back to being younger. (Yea, this 22 year old is thinking about the good old days.) I had not known of the newspaper comic strip of Zits until reading this, and I have to say I will be looking forward to it from now on. Jeremy and Hector are so fun and such adolescents. I love the junky van, the parents who don't understand, and Jeremy's odd dancing style. These future rock gods have an adventure and attempt to make a friend feel better.
If you are looking for a fun read for a kid just becoming a teenager this is a book for them. For the youth and for and fan of the Zits, I say Read It!
