“King Dork” by Frank Portman

Reviewed by Jimmy Can

King Dork is one of the first novels I’ve read this year. King Dork’s story follows Chi-mo(short for child molester) through his life in his High School, where he faces constant picking by school bullies, the vice principal, teachers(catcher cult) and various girls employing the make out-fake out. His life takes a turn for the better when he finds his Dad’s copy of Catcher in the Rye and various other books. He now has to unravel the mystery of “the dead bastard,” “Fiona,” and keep his band from breaking apart. This book is a fast paced one, and a must read.
