I was excited to read this book because I was looking forward to a schizophrenic main character, which is something I haven’t read so far. There was an insane principle and a conspiracy that a scoreboard was cursed. One teacher constantly SCREAMED WHICH WAS ALL WRITTEN IN CAPS. Annoying, right? All the characters were clichés: the bitchy and blonde cheerleader, the love interest who always smells incredibly specific (pastries, mint soap, tobacco and wood shavings in this case) and a main character whose mental illness is only used as a character trait. The fact that other teenagers paid Miles to pull pranks was absolutely unrealistic and I was irritated by the fact that his friends constantly called him either “boss” or “mein Chef”. Which is also what annoyed me the most: Miles can speak German and therefore is labelled as a Nazi by all the other kids in school. There’s one Nazi joke after another. However, the biggest No-Go was that Miles showed up in a Nazi uniform for a school event. This was the absolute worst decision the author made. There wasn’t really a deeper meaning and it left me absolutely irritated. It felt like a waste of time to me.
