The Book I read was “Crash & Burn” by Michael Hassan
this is the first novel I've read by him and I would have to give it six stars
hands it was a really entertaining and sad story I would recommend this book to
High School students because it has alot of profanity and this is the only And
first book Michael Hassan has ever written.
The story talks about a fictional school shooting that took
place April 28, 2008 the main character’s name is “Steven Crashinsky” Steven is
a kid with ADHD who struggles in school and always finds himself in trouble and
there’s “David Burnett” the other main character who plays a big role in the
story.Steven Always manages to find himself in trouble with David when they
were younger David tried to burn their elementary school down that's how he get
his name “Burn” plus his last name was “Burnett” David is like a genius in the
community but he has mental issues in the book he deals with depression and
anger management and it worsens after his mother,sister and father die.
Steven on the other hand is treated poorly by his father
because of his condition he’s treated like he has a disease but he has this sort
of gift when he wants something it always manages to fall right into his hands
but nothing ever goes davids way that's the way they're connected even when
David is sent away to military school they still found themselves together
again It was as David Was “Darth Vader” and Steven was “Luke Skywalker”
David his whole family and he went through so much until April 28,2008
when he broke into a rage and rigged the whole school with bombs and took the
students hostage and Steven had to come save the school and talk David out of
it and calm him down and Steven was honored as the school hero.The theme of
this book is friendship because even though they went through all that at the
end they were still always best friends no matter how much they denied it.
