13. SHELF TALKERS
BMOC Recommends
STUPID FAST by Geoff Herbach. Meet a very confused
Felton, a teen who has been beat up by bullies until this
year when he discovered he can run stupid fast. “ If you
want to read something fantastically funny, pick up Stupid
Fast. If you want to read something honest and refreshing,
pick up Stupid Fast. I can't recommend this debut novel
enough. Geoff Herbach has really impressed me and I
CAN'T WAIT to read more of his work!"
