Restart might be one of the best books I have ever read in my life. The way that Gordan described the different characters and the controversy is pretty cool.
Chase's story line about trying to find who he is a finally becoming a good person is really fun, particularly when he's attached at the hip with Bear and Aaron.
Shoshanna's story line of trying to protect Joel and figuring out that Chase is different and has changed is also really fun to read.
My favorite point of view was probably Brendan. The videos he makes makes me laugh out loud even when I haven't even seen a video of them. The things he will do to win Kimberly Tooley over is funny.

If there was one thing I had to critique about the whole thing though, it was the lack of past story about Chase, Bear, and Aaron. After hearing how far they would go with Joel, (willing to throw a hockey stick at his bicycle so he ends up with a sprained wrist and black eye,) I'd like to the thinking and why they decide to do that. It's unclear why they want to bully and injure people so much, so I wish there was more about that. Overall a great book and a great read though.
