This is one of the selections for the Iowa High School Book Award 2015-2016. This is about an obese teenager who puts up a webpage saying that on the last day of the year he is going to eat himself to death. The website is found out by his classmates who rally around him and Butter finds himself becoming popular for the first time. However, Butter’s threats on the webpage snowball into something he starts to seriously consider.
I picked this book out because the idea seemed outrageous, that somebody would plan to kill themselves by eating themselves to death. Once you start reading it, you start to care about Butter and you do not want him to go through with his plan. You keep reading to find out if he goes through with the plan or if he finds a way out.
