Jamie is a 14 year old boy who is nicknamed “Punkzilla” because of his love for punk music. He is a troubled boy who went AWOL from military school to see his gay older brother before he dies of cancer. On his journey to Memphis, he writes letters to his brother explaining everything he’s ever done wrong. In his quest to get to his brother he is mugged and lost all his money. I really enjoyed reading this “weird” book of letters. Jamie was a troubled kid who was into drugs and stealing, which is why he ended up in Military School. I could really relate to this kid. Not because of his bad habits, but the way he was trying to fight to get home to his brother. It was a very inspirational story to me. Despite the weird title and definitely weird cover, I enjoyed reading this story.
