Summary: Excellent Audio-Book - Not just for teenagers
Review: I had the pleasure of listening to this book on tape recently. The narrative was enhanced by having one reader narrate Bo's letters to Larry King and another reader narrate the other parts of the story. It worked very well and brought the listener into Bo's thoughts and feelings about growing up as a teenager in a dysfunctional family. Not having been a teenager for many years (but having 2 of my own), I found it to be honest and realistic. There are so many instances of rage in today's world -- Anger Management class seems to be a great form of therapy for high school students who can't control their rage. While Bo doesn't quite show his rage in a physically destructive way, his life is enhanced by the people and mentors he meets while attending Anger Management. Highly recommend this book.

Summary: ironman
Review: I have recetly read the book titled "Ironman." This book is based on a boy named Bo Brewster and what he has to encounter as a young man with his anger and his home life which serves to not be stable because his dad left. After many different accounts at school with his anger, instead of being expelled he decided to enroll into a anger management class before school. It's here that he meets the future love of his life. Read this book and find out what happens between them.

Review: I liked this book a lot because of how the author wrote it. Some of the book was writan in a form of a letter, which was very interesting. This book teaches about the powers of friendship and of hardships. I would highly recomened this book to anyone who loves dramas.

Summary: Great Book!
Review: I read this book for English class and I didn't think I'd like it at all. Turns out I love the book. Once I got started I wanted to keep reading on. Beaus father was mean to him when he had to be in his room for several months. If I could recommend a book to someone this would be one of them. Its great!

Summary: Ironman
Review: I really enjoyed reading this book. I didnt want to read it at first because it didnt seem very interesting. When the book started to pick up i enjoyed reading it.I read it in 2 days when i wasnt in school. I think it has alot of moral values and lessons of relationships between people. Its also an exciting book; like him training, getting a girlfriend, struggles with his father and Ian Wyrack. Also about Mr.S i think i would have freaked out at first but then probably thought it through and not think of it much because its not my problem. He was smart to get over that part and move on with life being friends still. I liked Mr.Nak, he seemed like a weird but a nice and understanding man. He did seem to know what he was talking about most of the time and I wouldnt mind if I ever had a teacher like him leaving my decisions up to me and things like that.I would also like that too because I would be able to get things off my mind and know it wouldnt leak out to other people hearing it outside the group. I think they all ended up being pretty close to each other. It was nice of Shelly to offer to watch Elvis' brother and sister so he can get a job and make money for them. But overall I thought it was an awesome book. I loved reading it and would recommend it to people to read. Im not a big reader myself but I surprisingly enjoyed it.

Summary: Trialing Teenage Times
Review: In a choice novel assignment given by my junior english teacher, I chose to read "Ironman", written by Chris Crutcher. The main character, Bo Brewster, is having a difficult time dealing with his family life as well as his football coach. Bo can come off to some people as a "hot head" or a "quitter", but I view him as a teenager that faces many of the same problems that many student athletes, or just regular teenagers face in real life. Bo takes the smart way of dealing with his anger, and enrolls in an anger management class before school to avoid being expelled, and to make himself a better human being. Some people believe in the expression, "Things happen for a reason." Well, in Bo's situation, I believe things did happen for a reason in this story. While going to the anger management classes, a man by the name of Mr. Nak becomes what I like to think of as Bo's mentor. He sees what makes Bo aggravated, and shares his life stories with Bo to show him that he isn't the only one who goes through rough times during his life. The book titled "Ironman" is an excellent book that should be required for teenagers to read because while we may think everyone lives the perfect life, we all go through challenging experiences that can be related with Bo. We just have to open our eyes and be willing to accept the guidence from others just as Bo did to make ourselves better human beings.

Summary: Ick.
Review: In my opinion, this book, Ironman by Chris Crutcher was really stupid. I dislike his style of writing. I tried to like it, and I tried to get into this book but I ended up putting the book down only after the fifth chapter. What I do like about Chris Crutcher, is his strong female characters. I wouldn't recommend this book.

Summary: Ironman
Review: Ironman was an excellant book and I believe it was definitly a5-star rating. The book had some drawbacks which include lack ofexcitement at the beginning of the book is all out an excellant book. Bo is a boy has many problems as so do you and I but he finds ways we may not think of to espress his emotions. Anyone who reads this book will feel shame, sorrow, love, joy, and happiness. This book I think is written to anyone who will listen and according to Chris Crutcher "Larry King listens."
