In Ginger Kid, popular comedian Steve Hofstetter grapples with life after seventh grade . . . when his world fell apart. Formatted as a series of personal essays, Steve walks his readers through awkward early dating, family turbulence, and the revenge of the bullied nerds. This YA nonfiction is sure to be the beloved next volume for the first generation of Wimpy Kid fans who are all grown up and ready for a new misfit hero.

Ginger Kid: Mostly True Tales from a Former Nerd | Steve Hofstetter

so-so

I'm not sure why anyone other than young adults read YA books, but I made an exception with this one because I enjoy Hofstetter's stand-up comedy. I'm also not sure why he wrote this. Some of the stories are entertaining, but his teenage years weren't as brutal as I was expecting. Hofstetter is too interesting of an adult to write about a time period that is so mundane.
