Beau says he's not one of the cool kids because he doesn't play sports, ride a motorcycle, know anything about cars, or play video games

"So I didn’t relate well to people my age. Maybe the truth was that I didn’t relate well to people, period. Even my mother, who I was closest to of anyone on the planet, never really understood me. Sometimes I wondered if I was seeing the same things through my eyes that the rest of the world was seeing through theirs. Like, maybe what I saw as green was what everyone else saw as red. Maybe I smelled vinegar when they smelled coconut. Maybe there was a glitch in my brain."

sorry for sharing full excerts but UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGGGGGHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh baby's first deep thought here. wrow.

nevermind here we go:

"It was impossible, being in this house, not to realize that Charlie had never gotten over my mom. It made me uncomfortable."

Beau's reminded me for the 10th time that he's very tall and very pale and I'm glad he is because I'd forget otherwise

in twilight she blushed but in life and death beau "could feel the blood rush into my face, no doubt forming unattractive splotches across my cheeks and neck."

why's he not allowed to blush??

"The girl from English, Erica, waved at me from across the room, and they all laughed. Already the butt of the joke. It was probably a new record for me. But none of them seemed mean-spirited about it."

how... huh? how is that being the butt of the joke?? she just waved... whyd everyone laugh? w... this boys got issues tho like for real, acting like everyone's out to get him or something, while simultaneously acting like 'oh everyone wants to get close to me to act cool'

whats up boy...
