Summary: OK but it drags on!
Review: Burger Wuss is pretty good book. The only thing wrong with it is that it drags on & on about how bad his life is going. Anthony needed to be the stonger person and not let the bigger kids like Tunner beat up on him. Also I don't know why he would even try to get back with someone that cheated on him.
When Anthony was missing money out of his register he should have gone to the manager and told him that he was missing money . Then when he cought Tunner taking money, he should not have said any thing to Tunner and just told the manger to put up a camera to watch the register. Otherwise it was a pretty good book, I liked it.

Summary: Deliciously funny, yet disturbing in a horrific sense... ^^
Review: A wickedly funny spin on teen love, the male code of behavior, and corporate food companies. Condiment trolls, bullies, and teen sweethearts! Gotta love rebel "Shunt," and feel for Anthony's broken heart! Also, a disgusting yet hilarious "Farrelly Brothers" type moment, for those into that sort of thing (read it and find out!)
5 stars and an order of fries!

Summary: Burger Wuss
Review: "Burger Wuss" was a very truthful and descriptive story on the troubles of growing up. I read this book for my eigth grade honors reading program. I enjoyed reading this book because it gives an in depth look on the harsh reality of being a teenager. Also, the book's characters are very well drawn out and depicted wonderfully throughout the story. Written by M.T. Anderson, the book is about a young boy who is fiercely set on revenge. The book tells of the obstacles in life one must overcome. I would rewcommend this book to all teenagers from eigth grade on into high school.

Summary: It Has It's Moments.. Good AND Bad
Review: "Burger Wuss." That title's gotta intrigue you, right? SOUNDS funny, doesn't it? Well, it is... at times. It's also lame, childish and boring. It goes from the timeless love story of Diana and Anthony, all those touching moments, like Diana's polymer teeth- "perfect polymers- taste bitter, but beautiful," the way D can put away a pizza, even how sweet their relationship is- Until Anthony (or "Little Miss Wuss") finds Diana in the arms of another. I made that sound a little steamier than it actually is, but there are several reference to Turner (the CREEP) and his green sateen. Anthony MUST make him cry. Muhaha. You get the idea. It's written in an overly dramatic style- appreciated at times, annoying the rest of the while- and it DOES have some good moments. "Before her... I would pace in circles trapped inside the house, and drink all of the orange juice, and pace some more thinking about popular kids and their fast cars.." Yes, Anthony is...one with a bad sense of humour most of the time. It is unfortunate that we're plagued with his insufferable rants on how beautiful/wonderful Diana was and curse Turner in his green sateen. You'll notice I've made several references to the green sateen? There is a reason for this. It's mentioned approximately ever 10.1 sentences. It has good character development and a relatively solid plot. Kudos to the author for that, at least. It's good to read if you're excessively bored. Otherwise, I don't really recommend it.

Summary: Read the book, it's better than the Bible.
Review: (...)M.T. Anderson's use of teen vernacular is like dead-on. He explores the ludicrous, heart-ripping, pointless nature of teen love and the banality of the trenches of corporate America in this wonderful novel. Protagonist, Anthony, is clever, sarcastic, ackward, and realistic -- a character who doesn't insult teens' intellegence. Meanwhile, subversive sidekick, Shunt, is a great role model for everyone. Fight the power!

Summary: A MUST READ!
Review: ...for teens and adults alike. Hands down, this shrewd and hilarious take on modern teen life is the best book I've read in a very long time. A laugh-outloud-riot of a novel. Better than carrot cake, even.

Review: A good read, especially for summer reading. So vivid, you can feel the grease coming out of the pores of the book.

Summary: Teenage angst, revenge, sex, and "love"
Review: Anderson does it once again. He created a book that stereotyped the American teenager growing up. The lust, the pain, the pressure, the anger. This book was nothing like his first book "Thirsty", but the similarities could be easily seen. His main character, a teenage boy named Anthony, has fallen for Diana, the fake-toothed girl of his dreams. They get together. He lives in paradise. His heart is broken at a keg party where he spots Diana making out with an older loser who works at O'Dermott's, the local fast-food joint. The rest of the story summed up easily: revenge for the angry teenager. This book is most comical. Anthony's elaborate plans for vengence are far-fetched and hilarious. His inability to act as a normal teenager amazes me. He seems to believe that he "loves" Diana, and that they are forever. I think it's safe to say that no teenager should assume this, it's dangerous. As for the rest of his thoughts, they are also a little out there. Of course Anderson purposedly exaggerates Anthony's teenage life to be the epitome of teenage misunderstanding. Anthony's parents are a bit much as well. They are the older couple that is still very much in love - holding hands, encouraging his social life, asking for group hugs when things go wrong. They're overbearingly unparent-like. This adds to the abstract bizarre quality of this story, and makes it entertaining. On a whole this book is a quick and simple easy read solely written for distracting purposes. It seems right for the age-group it is aimed at, but a little much for the rest of us. I would recommend "Thirsty" over "Burger Wuss." Bottomline: teenagehood never looked so bad.

Summary: Silly and simple
Review: Anthony takes a job at O'Dermott's fast food restaurant for one reason only: to gain revenge on fellow employee Turner, who stole his girlfriend. In a convoluted, goofy series of events, Anthony engages his anti-corporate co-worker, Shunt, and his two love-crazy friends, Rick and Jennifer. Together, they hatch a plot to frame Turner for the theft of a rival restaurant's condiment troll and humiliate him in front of everyone. This novel may appeal to some readers because of its fast-paced plot and humor, but I thought it was uninspired and boring. Although the writer has some moments of voice and a few clever ideas, the plot is rather thin, and the complete lack of seriousness makes the characters seem unrealistic and difficult to believe. Too many bathroom joke add ot the gross-out factor and make the story even harder to respect. Low-level high school readers and perhaps middle-schoolers will find this novel entertaining.

Summary: Anarchy, Love, Revenge, and a Happy Meal please!
Review: Anthony's angry. His first actual girlfriend just dumped him for a dweeb named Turner who she works with at a local fast food chain called "O'Dermott's". Anthony, bitter and vengeful, decides his best revenge will be getting hired at O'Dermott's himself. All the better to destroy the boy who ruined Anthony's life. As Anthony sets into motion a chain of events that races the story to it's hilarious conclusion, "Burger Wuss" delivers a great book! With humor, and more than a little bitterness toward corporate food chains, Anderson gives us an interesting glimpse behind the emotional angst of being a teenager in America, and the hilarious antics of working in the corporate world.
