Fat Kid Rules the World
Fat Kid Rules the World by KL Going, is a real, funny book. Troy Billings is a 298 pound senior and is about to kill himself, when Curt Macray, a skinny, junkie, dropout musical legend stops him from stepping in front of the subway. Curt and Troy make a band between the two of them, with curt on guitar and Troy on drums. Though Troy can’t play them. Curt teaches Troy cow to play the drums, after getting Troy to stop feeling sorry for himself and to start rocking out. Curt is a drug addict and Troy knows it, but Troy doesn’t try to stop him because he doesn’t want to lose Curt as a friend. After practicing for five weeks, “Rage/Tectonic”, is ready to play at the local stage the Dump.
The theme of the book is no matter what you look like and no matter who you are you can rock out. Troy thinks he can’t do anything because he’s fat. He thinks people think he’s funny and stare at him. Curt helps him realize that people don’t. This eventually makes Troy realize he can be a drummer.
I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to read something different. Young kids shouldn’t read this because there is drug use and a lot of swearing. This book was kind of hard to follow because of some the confusing stuff they did and talked about. I personally love this and enjoyed it a lot. This book is different, funny and hardcore, so read it.
