Sorta Like a Rock Star is definitely one of the more fun contemporaries I've read this year, in spite of the heavy issues alluded to in the summary. While it took a couple of chapters to get me settled in properly with this story, it was totally worth it in the end. True? True.Amber Appleton is a girl with unusual circumstances. She lives on a bus with her mother, takes showers and eats what she can at one of her best friend's houses, is part of a school organization with a bunch of oddball boys and volunteers at a local church and a senior center. With that much on her plate, you'd think that Amber would collapse into a ball and die of exhaustion (physical or emotional), but the girl is a ball of energy, optimism and strength. She has an unusual way of thinking (which takes some getting used to), but it fits right in with who she is.But then, the great tragedy strikes. A tragedy that turns Amber's world upside down.It's almost as if a switch is flicked, and Amber becomes a robot. She goes through the motions, even as despair and doubt threaten to drown her. My heart completely broke for her, and it was no hardship to understand where her anger, sorrow and doubts were coming from. Her situation, as viewed through her eyes, is hopeless.And yet, as I've said before, Sorta Like a Rock Star is hopeful. How so, you might wonder, after reading the previous paragraph. Well, turns out that Amber has a great support system in her best friends, her favorite priest and the Korean ladies from church, her friends at the senior center and many, many more. Just seeing how much people were willing to reach out to Amber and help her in a time of need spoke volumes of her impact on them and their lives, and I loved that.The latter parts of the novel keep on building up the good and the hope until it spills out into the awesomeness of the ending. I've not felt so positive or hopeful while reading in a long time, so that's definitely a bonus!Sorta Like a Rock Star might sound like your usual contemporary fare, but it's not. Amber Appleton is an unusual character, surrounding herself with unusual people (who you will get to meet and fall in love with in this novel). While it might take some time to get used to everything, I promise you this: Amber Appleton's story is worth a read. True? True.
It took me a long time to get into this book. The first half or so was pretty boring to me and I didn't know how long I could put up with the terrible slang. I kept hoping the language would get better and go away but it mostly didn't. However, when the plot actually thickened and peaked I became immediately more interested. I found the haikus really interesting and the characters quirky. The ending was a little unbelievable and it flattened because of that. When I finished the book though I kept thinking back to the characters and the story so Quick must've done something right. I would say don't abandon it, because whether you love or hate it, something from this book is bound to stick with you.
This one is for all of the kids who live outside the edge of normal, all of the kids who have secrets behind what their faces show at school each day, all of the kids who have been picked on, and especially for all of the kids who when faced with the worst, offer up their best.This one is for all of you who are rock stars of hope, just like Amber Appleton the winning heroine of Matthew Quick's charmingly heartbreaking YA novel Sorta Like a Rock Star.I've been a fan of Quick's writing for a while now and I expect a lot from his work. I expect honesty and humor and a wacky set of characters doing interesting things: and, boy, does this book deliver all of those things in spades. Most importantly, this book delivers a great big heart, all packaged within the body of Amber Appleton--who is one part Dorothy in Oz, one part Alice in Wonderland, and one part all her own. She's a girl who has been pushed down into a dark place due to circumstances beyond her control and when life deals her an unfair and devastating hand, even though she wants to give up, she refuses to.Partly she keeps going because Amber is not alone in her hardships; through her dark times she has her friends (a group of misfit kids, a haiku writing war vet, a Nietzsche quoting nursing home villain, and a Catholic priest among others). In her darkest hour when all she wants to do is be alone, they will not give up on her. They fight for her in the way no one else ever has--not even her parents.Amber teaches us to never give up yearning for a better future. She teaches us what it means to survive. Most importantly, she gives us hope.Buy this book for your favorite high school kid. Buy this book for your mother and father. Buy this book for a complete stranger who looks like he is having a crappy day and needs a reason to believe. Buy this book.
I'm reading this on kindle. I think the ebook has some editorial errors that need to be corrected. After everything the narrator says, there is the word "word". I guess this was an editor's note to come back and add something, but the ebook left those notes in. Also, there are notes to fact check like "True? True." I don't understand why it needs to be fact checked if it's a novel. Those thing need to be taken out of the ebook version. I'm going to try reading the physical book from the library. Hopefully that won'thave the editing errors.
This book is a great combination of touching and funny -- the heroine is so quirky and charming and weirdly resilient that even when the sad things happen, you sort of roll with her oddly unshakable optimism throughout. Think a bit of Juno -- rough life, snarky-cute attitude. It also reminded me a bit of the books by Nick Hornby -- hard-luck stories but presented with so much humor and charm that you root even harder than if it were just a weepy mess of a story. This is my first Matthew Quick and I'm already reading my second -- I'm a new fan!
