I'm sorry. I just don't get this one. It's about a spoiled rich kid who leaves school three days before he would be done anyway, and spends the time doing nothing. Yawn. Supposedly he's smart, though I didn't see any evidence to support that, and has a bunch of angst. I would rather read something with a plot.
