A review by writewithapendragon
King Dork by Frank Portman

Did not finish book. Stopped at 24%.
I can understand why this book is so critically lauded—it’s a great modern version of Catcher In the Rye. Unreliable narrator, unique and interesting perspective, authentic voice and believable characters.
Sometimes, that authenticity is just a lot, and even with ~modern sensibilities~ I don’t think the book needed any/nearly as many casual slurs. I would  recommend this book to others with recommendation to check for triggers, but it is simply not my jam right now.
