Flamingnet Student Book Reviewer JPear
Going Nowhere Faster stars Stan, a boy handicapped by his
name and the weirdness of his family, but with an
extraordinary mind. Ask Stan any math question, or anything
about the video collection of Happy Video, where he works,
and he'll blink, and in that time, come up with the correct
answer. Still, though, Stan has a difficult time in life.
He doesn't have a girlfriend. He has one friend. He hasn't
even applied to college. He doesn't know where he's going
with his life--or even if he'll make it through the summer,
as someone is out to get Stan!
Going Nowhere Faster is a well-written book. It's very
interesting, and I especially loved Stan's very...unique
family. Going Nowhere Faster is full of interesting
characters, especially Stan himself. He gets into the most
hilarious situations, too! It's a funny, fresh, and
wonderful story that's well worth reading!
