The thought of going friendless for so long, taking a beating like that, and then for what? It's rough to think about and it's a complicated message. I’m with you, and most kids would be too.

I hated the ending then. I was young, impressionable, and innocent and I couldn't believe that Jerry stood alone at the end. I always thought that I would have stood beside him if I had been a character in the book. Unfortunately, as I've grown up, I've realized that horrible things happen in this world that have to rhyme or reason. The writing is excellent and I can seen some underlying themes but I still wished that someone had been in the ring to fall beside Jerry in the end.

I never knew what it was about, only that it had naughty bits and was always checked out of the library. You could do a lot worse than reading only books that have been banned. Sounds great.
