One of the worst pieces of drivel I've ever read. By simply stringing together "I cut myself, I make myself throw up, I'm so goth, I dye my hair weird colors, I had sex at an early age, my parents don't understand me" you are NOT a writer. This is fiction, yet the author goes in and out of "my mom's alive, my mom died but I'm only going to allude to it, not actually tell you why" and other stuff that makes you actually think, "Please DO cut yourself but this time, do it for REAL." That's a little harsh, but this book was absolutely horrendous writing.

If you liked Namedropper, you're sure to enjoy Thin Skim. I read it in a few hours on an airplane last week.
