Be More Chill

advance disappointment for be more chill

first of all i hate how all the characters talked like 'bwer-her-her' or 'Mmmmrr, yuh' what does that mean? we don't talk like that.It is a horriable beginning epscailly when the teacher was taking attendence it was very hard to understand and no offense but i know no one who keeps a sheet of paper and writes down how many times he/she is being mortified.I feel like I'm in a girl's mind not a boy!! Can't these characters speak normal! maybe you should revaluate yourself if your going to make another teen book

Awesome Book

This was such an amazing book, i couldn't put it down. This book isn't one of those books that's boring at the beginning and good at the end, its awesome all the way through. usually i read books in a week or so, but i read this one in a couple days... i would almost consider it addicting :)

Be more chill book review by Demetrius B

I have decided to write a review about the book Be more chill by Ned Vizzini. The book was very interesting and I liked it. The book is about an average high school kid named Jeremy who wants to be popular and the center of attention for girls. He finds a pill called a squip that is a microcomputer that gives him advice on how to be cool and be popular. Jeremy then tries to get the squip by stealing things from his family and scrapes up money to get this squip. Jeremy also has someone in particular he wants to impress, Christine, his dream girl. When Jeremy gets the squip his whole life changes. He starts acting different, talking different, and dressing different. He starts hanging out with popular girls and now has a reputation. Jeremy then starts ditching class smoking marijuana and hooking up with girls. His parents start to realize how different he is acting, but they don't know the half of it. Everybody starts to befriend him, even the ones who bullied him before he had the squip. Jeremy goes to a party and starts flirting with a girl named Chloe, but she has a boyfriend. Chloe's boyfriend finds them in a laundry room making out, and he tries to fight Jeremy, and Jeremy runs away. Jeremy then finds his friends and fled the party with his mom's car almost getting into an accident with a fire truck. After dropping off everybody home, Jeremy forgot to put the car in park and the car almost went down the road, because he was so high on ecstasy. The next day, Jeremy went passed the house where he attended the party and saw a fire truck putting out a fire where the party was. Jeremy thinks its his friend Rich who set the fire to the house because he is known to do things like that. Later on, his mother finds out that he took her car to go to the party, and Jeremy confesses that he did take the car, and that he had had a computer squip inside of him that tells him what to do, and they thought he was going mad. His parents took him to the doctor because of what he said and they thought he was losing his mind. When Jeremy finally went to school, he noticed everyone wearing black in respect for the victims who was hurt in the fire at the party. After everything went back to normal, Jeremy went back to his normal routines which included participating in his school play. At the school play Jeremy's squip told him to confess to his dream girl Christine about how much he likes her. He managed to get enough courage and approached Christine, but she did not like him in the same way. That was the day the computer squip turned itself off in Jeremy's body. Jeremy also lost his popularity status and was kicked off the school play, and his friend Michael turned against him by telling Christine about the computer squip. Jeremy learns that being popular is not easy. I will give you two reasons in my opinion why everyone should read this book. The first reason in my opinion everyone should read this book is that teenagers especially can relate. This book takes place in a high school setting similar to the shows like The hard times of RJ Berger. This show deals with similar problems teenagers have who are not as popular and are trying to fit in. In the show The hard times of RJ Berger the main character has to go through school being bullied and unpopular, until he finds something inside of him to stand up for himself and take a stand. The character in this show also likes a girl and has a hard time getting her attention. When

finished it in a day, its that good

i just couldnt stop reading this. its a quick read, original plot, and very easy to relate to. give it a try, you will love it!

Entertaining

This is a novel about a teenage boy named Jeremy Heere who has the common desire to fit in at his high school. He finds out about a computerized pill called the "squip" that can teach him how to be cool and he works out a dishonest way to afford the pill. The book takes an exciting turn when Jeremy takes the pill. It was interesting and very original to have this squip commenting on Jeremy's thoughts (in other words, the narrative) and telling him how to behave in social situations.

very good!

i JUST finished this book today! i took me 3 days to finish it.. the book was very interesting and i couldnt put it down! i wanted to keep on knowing what was gonna happen.. try it out! you will like it:)

cool

This book is exciting and always full of surprises. This is a book that many teens in high school can relate to. This book was fun to read and I give it four stars. I rate this book four stars because of how it can relate to teens in high school and because it was a fast read and entertaining at the same time. After reading this book i can come to the conclusion that Ned Vizzini is the kind of author that can connect to the reader at a level of understanding. He knows what it is like to be a teenager in high school, and the stress and decisions that you have to make throught the four years that you are there.

entertaining, short book

I usually am not an avid reader but when my little sister brought this book home from school I was interested, the title especially caught my attention. I started reading the first couple pages to test it out and after a while found me through the first few chapters. The book is very relatable and doesn't hold back on iffy topics such as drugs and masturbation. I finished the book in about two days and the chapters are quick and short which just makes you want to keep on reading, and reading, and reading. Overall pretty entertaining, it's like a reality show on tv when you have nothing better to do but it's entertaining for the moment, but ultimately forgettable. Also I felt it ended pretty quickly and the end although not bad was not as clever as I (or the author) would've liked.

Hella Funny!

I loved this book, it's just so funny. Jeremy is your average dork, that wants to be cool. So he buys a "squip" a pill size computer that you swallow and is to bring you whatever you desire in life. He goes after this girl Christine, but that is not so easy. It is funny when jeremy and the squip argue/ talk to eachother. This is a fun book to read. I recommend it to everyone! Although one thing, I did not like the ending much. I wanted to know how Christine reacted! Oh well.

Amazing

I loved this book. It made me open my eyes and respect 'nerds' around me because one day, they can be cool and popular and leave you in the dust. But still, it's a great book, and I actually gave it to my boyfriend for his birthday and he also enjoyed it. So. You should read it!

OMG THIS IS AN AMAZING BOOK

I stayed up until 4:30 in the morning to finish this book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was amazing I'm a girl and I can't believe how much i loved this book! You can feel like your there with Jeremy(the main character) feeling what he is feeling. It's defintiely one of those books you just can't put down until your done and then when you r done you have to pick it up again and read it over and over until you know the entire book by heart and can recite it. when you read it each time you feel like your reading from a different side it's a GREAT book and I would reccomend it to everyone in the world(well except for maybe some old people becuz their old hearts couldnt handle it all) Buy this book now and you will get the joy of a lifetime!

Rockin'!

I loved this book, although I definately think It's Kind of a Funny Story was a lot better. It's amazing how Vizzini can take characters that aren't exactly likable, although they are funny and endearing, and make a fantastic story. Very creative, and although I found the ending a bit frustrating, I can't wait to read more books by Ned Vizzini!

I Love This Book!

Be More Chill is my new favorite book. I just finished it this morning. =] I'm a girl, but I still found this book interesting. For girls, this book gives you a chance to know what the guys are thinking. (I, personally, have always wondered.) For guys, you can really relate to Jeremy. The author doesn't hold back at all. This book is honest and amazing.

Absolutely Amazing

Based on a moral standing, this book definitely tells a message to all of those who want something the grass always looks greener on the other side. This book was captivating through its modern language and topics that were mentioned. The entire book was powerfully written and very compelling. For three days, reading just fewer than 100 pages a day I just could not put the book down. Before this book I did not like to read or was interested in reading as much. Thank to Mrs. Hardacre for assigning my class to do this I have now found something new to keep me entertained. Recommending this book is a definite to anyone, which already includes many people in my English class. The ending was written sincerity.

Wow

This book was amazing and hilarious. I was laughing throughout it all, and I experienced so many emotions reading it. When Jeremy had an unfortunate event occur, I felt bad for him, and when he wasn't sure what to do, I wasn't sure if i could continue reading because it would be painful to see something bad happen to the character. I really felt connected to this story and I defiently recommend it because it's so fresh--there's nothing out there that's like it.

OMG great book for all teens

OMg this was a great book. I just couldnt stop reading it. I had bought it just before a long eight hour plane ride and I finished the book before we landed. I couldnt stop reading it. It was great!

awesome book!!

omg i LOVED this book!! a real and honest depiction of teenage troubles and angst and just a great book.

A reviewer

I personally think that this book really expressed how teenagers feel in high school. HIgh SChool is a dangerous place and there are things like cliques and there is pressure and people are mean. This book was good that it brought those topics up but extremely unrealistic that a computer chip can tell you how to be 'cool.' It is a really good book for teenagers to read and I felt the author did a good job on expressing the changes our brave protagonist of the story chagnes throught out his time taking the 'squip'

OMG THE BEST BOOK EVERY!!!

This book was amazing! It's about this boy getting into a lot of trouble and doing whatever to be cool and get this one girl he loves...
