In You Don’t Know Me by David Klass there are many elements that make it a young adult book. The book is written in first person which is one of the elements. The main character of this book is John who is a teenager that has many problems in his life. Many of his problems are typical problems of a teenager. For example, he likes a girl, but she does not like him back. Another problem some teenagers go through is abuse. John is abused by his father which is not most teenagers have to go through, but there are definitely some that are abused. John also becomes much more mature by the end of the book. At the beginning of the book he did not care about his academics. At the end of the book he tried much harder in school. Also in this book there are themes that make it qualify as a young adult. One theme is alienation. John throughout the book is a outcast and he does not fit in. The other theme in the book is abuse. John’s father abuses John. This is a major theme in this book. You Don’t Know Me has many themes and elements that make it a young adult book.
You don’t know Me by David Klass is a book that I would only rate as only being OK. The main character, John, was very hard for me to relate to because he seemed a little bit ‘weird.’ For example, he was very bad at playing his tuba and made up a tall tale involving a unhappy frog and a princess. He also has many different nicknames for his teachers. For Ms. Gabriel he calls her Ms. Garlic Breath or Ms. Moonface. He also calls his school the anti-school and his math class anti-math. This was one of the reasons why I did not like the book. Another reason was the themes in this book One theme was abuse. I could not relate to this at all which made me dislike this book. John also had a very uncaring mother who was not involved in his life. My mother on the other hand cares a lot about my life. The last reason I disliked the book is that John does not fit in at school. I fit in and have many friends unlike John. I could not relate to the main character and that is why I disliked this book.
