You by Charles Benoit

     Kyle is just starting 10th grade.  His reputation for being the kid who always gets into trouble precedes him as he starts the beginning of the new school year.  Everything is just disappointing and mundane. His attitude is very disenchanted. He is very cynical and wishing he would have done a better job in the 8th grade. Home life is plain, school life isn't any better, his social life is even worse. He has very few friends. 
     Kyle told his best friend about a crush he has on a girl, Ashley. He is too shy to ask Ashley out. These are just a few of the problems going on in Kyle's life. There is no way anyone could have known how it all would end.  Zack has been bullying Kyle and going before Kyle setting situations up so it looks like Kyle has done something he really hasn't done. Something that will get Kyle into trouble.  Everyone just thinks Kyle is all about doing the wrong thing and being at the wrong place at the wrong time, even when he did do the right thing.
     I listened to this audiobook. It was pretty short for an audiobook. I'm not really sure what I think of this book because Kyle is so negative and doomsday in his attitude.  When I finished it I thought it was an average book. But three days later, I really had to strain to remember what my opinion of the book was. Be sure to check it out.  Let me know what you think.
