Butter

by Erin Jade Lange
₱490.05
Butter - Thryft
Butter - Thryft

Darkly humorous tale of an unconventional protagonist's journey.

This book could be a good read for someone who appreciates dark humor and is interested in stories about unconventional characters. Butter takes you on a journey through the life of a lonely outcast who, in his desperate attempt to be noticed, sets a terrifying deadline for himself. As you follow his story, you'll experience a rollercoaster of emotions - from gasping at his audacity to laughing at his wit, and even shedding a tear or two. If you've ever felt like an outsider or have been bullied, this book will resonate with you on a deeply personal level, reminding you that even in the darkest of moments, there's always a glimmer of hope and the possibility of finding your own voice.

Description

You think I eat a lot now? That's nothing. Tune in December 31st, when I will stream a live webcast of my last meal. Death row inmates get one. Why shouldn't I? I can't take another year in this fat suit, but I can end this year with a bang. If you can stomach it, you're invited to watch ... as I eat myself to death.So starts Butter, the story of a lonely 423-pound boy everyone calls 'Butter'. Worse than being ridiculed for his size at high school, he is simply ignored. Desperate, he pledges to eat himself to death live on the Internet - and everyone will watch. When he makes this announcement online, he expects pity, insults, or possibly sheer indifference. Instead, his classmates become morbid cheerleaders for his deadly plan.Yet as their dark encouragement grows, it begins to feel a lot like popularity. And that feels good. But what happens when Butter reaches his suicide deadline?Readers will be surprised to find themselves identifying with both the bullied ... and the bullies.
