The book is quite fascinating interpretation of the world through a teenagers view… many a time u would relate urself with author notion especially if u are an adolescent. Especially one of its remarks that the mark of immature man is that he wants to die for a noble cause while that of mature is he wants to live humbly for one.But it has some drawbacks too especially some breaks and could have shown other side of shade too.
