About

Sixteen-year-old Josh fantasizes about becoming a death metal guitarist complete with tattoos, piercings, and hoards of adoring fans (girls, mostly). But it's not easy when his super strict mom wont let him grow out his hair! Luckily, Josh has a way of coping with life's setbacks; it's only a diary, but it contains all Josh's hopes, dreams, and frustrations (not to mention some great ideas for band names and lyrics!). There's a lot he wants to get done before his 17th birthday, but things never turn out quite like he plans. What Josh doesn't know is that his mother also kept a diary around the time he was born, and a secret in there holds the key to Josh's life becoming a whole lot more metal.

Reviews

"Not since Adrian Mole has there been such a likable, sympathetic, and consistently funny loser. Metal head and ferret lover Josh Walker is so endearingly off center that you cannot help but root for him."
Todd Strasser, author of Fallout
"Half My Facebook Friends Are Ferrets is fast and packed with surprises and Josh "The Destroyer" is super funny."
Geoff Herbach, author of the YA series Stupid Fast
"J. A. Buckle had me at cornflakes sprinkled with bacon bits in this gritty, humorous book. I laughed out loud, and yet I detected an underlying current of seriousness that ran through this story like a bolt of lightning."
Tom Frye, author of Scratchin' on the Eight Ball
