Samenvatting

"Dont Let Them Know Who You AreMatthew knows how things work. Hes pretty much an expert.For example: friends. Friendship requires both give and take, and Matthew strongly prefers taking. The solution is close acquaintancespeople who think youre their friend because you nod and act interested about whatever the hell theyre talking about.School? Perfectly pleasant as long as you dont pay attention.Mom? Award yourself a point for each hands on hips or young man. Wear her down until you can get what you want.The general rule: The less anyone knows about you, the better.But even someone as clever as Matthew needs practice.Thats where Michael comes in.See, Michael doesnt get it. Hes the kind of kid who comes up with the answer before the teacher. Hes the kind of kid who asks questions. Hes the kind of kid who still has the ratty old backpack he should have thrown in someones dumpster years ago.Consequently, hes the kind of kid who gets the crap beaten out of him on a regular basis.So one day, Matthew, out of the kindness of his heart, decides to help Michael out. Turn his life around. Teach him how to make his life as great as Matthews.Before long, Matthew is helping Michael screw with his NASCAR-loving stepfather. Hes spreading rumors to convince the population of Alexander High School that Michael is a serious badass. He weaves his way into the lives of Michaels estranged dad, and even Chrissy, the half-sister Michael never even knew he had.But what if Michael isnt grateful for all of Matthews hard work? What if he actually likes who he is? Why the hell would he, and for that matter, why should Matthew even care?Changing Michael is an absorbing exploration into the head of one of the most fascinating high school characters since Holden Caulfield. Jeff Schillings remarkably insightful debut presents a story and a narrative voice readers will remember for a very long time to come.

Hoe controleren en plaatsen wij reviews? Hoe controleren en plaatsen wij reviews?

Negatief, positief, neutraal: we zetten een review altijd online. We controleren wel eerst of ’ie voldoet aan onze reviewvoorwaarden en niet nep is. We controleren ook of ’ie is geschreven door iemand die het artikel heeft gekocht via bol.com en zetten dit er dan bij. De controles gebeuren automatisch, al kijken er soms mensen mee. Bol.com betaalt niet voor reviews. Als een reviewer door een andere partij is vergoed, staat dit in de review zelf.
