Review:
There are many, many reasons not to like this book. I like it anyway. It made me laugh once I gave up trying to figure out if there was really any plot. Wright, as usual, has a habit of looking at the world in a way that I simply don't. His description of how a boy might experience ADD was interesting, plausible, and a good reason to talk about birds. The end of the book is just as I realized it would be about half way through and that was immensely satisfying. If you do not like Wright's comedy, then stay away.
