Angus Oblong - Creepy Susie: And 13 Other Tragic Tales for Troubled Children

Pros: hilariously demented

Pros: Hilarious scenarios, funny characters
Cons:

Swears, references to homosexuality, body exposure, cross dressing

First of all, this book is not for kids, and I should know, because I am about 12 years old.

I just got this book today from UPS, and my brother and I read it. It is funny, but through the book, you ask yourself, why the hell am I reading this? On page 100 it says the f word, on page 59 it references homosexuality, and on page 84, creepy susie's vagina "tingles" to the sight of a boy that has a crush on her. I would recommend this book to a.....13 or 14 year old boy or girl. Other than the bad parts, this is a good book, but that's my opinion.
