u need button-eyes to miss'em buddy . no really. thats wat makes these books sell nowadays. most contemporary authors write abt sex and war.
there are many to chose from, the sophisticated ones who lace their plots with subtle references and the all out shockers. take ur pick.


Why should I try to fit in
When I'm born to stand out!?!!
