Flash Burnout is a book about a boy and his relationships with his girlfriend and a friend that is a girl. It's a good read, with funny moments as well as serious ones. There are little snippets about photography that are nice. Overall, however, this book was nothing special. I struggled to be able to to define what the point of it was. I didn't like the way it ended. I have issues with endings. I like things summed up, even if there is a sequel. This book ended without resolution. It made me wonder what happened to the characters. It made me upset that the main character didn't have a chance to redeem himself. I felt like I wanted more. It was an okay book, not great, with no particular point, though it was well written. It could have been so much more. Instead, it was just a 'snapshot' of this kid's life. For some readers that might be enough, but for but me if fell flat.
