Nov 12, 2017TEENREVIEWCREW rated this title 2.5 out of 5 stars
Normally, a movie would be based off of a novel, but for this, it was the other way around. I found the story alright, but there were some questionable decisions peppered throughout this book. I do like the concept of a protagonist who just cannot get used to western living conditions in the late 1800s, and makes a lot of rash decisions because of his contempt. And for the most part, what’s going on is actually interesting. The problem is that this book tries to be as ‘adult’ as possible, by cramming a lot of swearwords, drug references, and sexual terms in it. You can’t go two pages without seeing the f-word pop up. With all that said and done, this book deserves a 2.5 out of 5 and a very cautious recommendation. - @RhythmDragon of the Teen Review Board of the Hamilton Public Library
