Monster

Ok, so now that I am really interested in YA lit, I am reading Monster which I am half done with thus far. It is interesting how the author has chosen to tell the story. Using the conventions of a screenplay not only shows the reader how this meduim can be used effectively to convey a story outside of movie making and stage show production but also gives us further insight into the main character who is "writting" his story in this fashion. Could a boy who can write a screenplay about the events in his his life really be a "monster?" We shall see...
