This book is in no way a suspense novel. The events are coming at you in every chapter. Tyler, an over weight bullied high school student had almost given up on life. His situation seemed hopeless. Then one day it hit him. There were other kids at school in the same situation. Tyler talks to these guys and invites them to a secret meeting to discuss the possibility of forming a gang and fighting back. Their lives change at the first meeting. The boys quickly bond and go from being alone, to part of a larger social group. They stick together, help one another out, and even take a little revenge on some of the bullies. The boys are able to start living life. They play a lot of sports, throw parties, chase girls, and most importantly realize that they have a future.I recommend this book to everyone but especially to those that can relate. In so many stories that I have come across the bullied kid ends up befriending someone strong that watches out for them. They are dependent on them. My guys take matters into their own hands and do not rely on the mercy of anyone. They are beyond asking for help and suffering in silence.A major topic in this book is food and the food industry. If you are a person that diets and struggles to give up or limit your intake of certain foods this book could end your struggle. In the book Tyler is given a detention for fighting. He is given one simple assignment during the detention that changes how he looks at food forever. This assignment can be done by anyone and I think it is more effective than any diet book out there. Thank you for your consideration and I hope to someday read reviews and see what people think of the book.Todd Black
