Be More Chill - Ned Vizzini

Brilliant book, just finished reading it for the second time. Really eye opening, whilst being cool and funny at the same time. As other reviwers have mentioned the language used is very strong which is slightly offputting, but i think it just adds to Jeremy, the SQUIP and other teenages' in the books' characters. Overall a great read with a unique and unpredictable plot.

Be More Chill

The books front cover was inviting for teenagers, its differant definately stands out in a shop! But as you read furthur into it the story takes a while to get started, its very slow and off putting.
When Jeremy, a fourteen year old boy, recieves information on a 'squip' he jumps at the chance of being cool and being liked by everyone... especially the girls.
The story improves but is taken over by a lot of swearing and rude comments, this ruins the book totally. Th story sjould be developed around him and not his fantisies. Suitable for 15+

this book is a great book for the slightly older children / teenagers as there is a lot of swearing and sexual language, but apart from this it is a great book about a fourteen year old lad who has his eye on a beautiful young lady so to help him on being cool he spends a lot of money buying a digestible quantum computer but will he manage to catch the eye of his one true love or will he and the squip make a complete fool out of him.

'Be More Chill'
|
I saw the cover of this book and i thought it looked quite cool.I then read the blurb and thought wow i am going to enjoy this.I began to read and was really impressed with what i read.All thought it does take a while to get in to the book i would recomend that you keep on reading even if you do find it boring to start off with.It does get better.
Jeremy is a young teenager who is a bit of a dork this soon changes when a friend tells him a bout a great little gadget you can buy for around 600 bucks a squip.A squip is a mini computer inside a pill that you swallow and the computer lodges in your brain and it tells you how to be cool.
i would reccomend this book for teenagers due to the use of bad language and sexual refferences.
Over all i really enjoyed this book and i would give it 10/10

'Be More Chill' written by Ned Vizzini, published by Harper Collins An amazing book with a realistic plot that provides an interesting and frank insight into boys' minds. Jeremy Heere buys himself a 'squip', which is a miniature computer (with Keanu Reeves' voice) that lodges into his brain and lets him know how to be cool. It's all in the hopes of impressing Christine who he likes (until he's squipped, then he 'digs' her !). But, is Christine cool enough for the squip? Girls: the secret of the way boys' minds work is finally revealed in this book! Boys: There are some GREAT tips on how to be cool. 5/5 Caitlin
