As a tv series tie-in book, this is a solid read.
Certain main characters of the show made an appearance or were mentioned. Certain side characters of the show were also sprinkled in. But a good number of new characters were introduced.
Pet peeve: Tommy H’s surname is Hagan not Hayes. The book got that wrong.
The story does shed light on how Eddie failed senior year the 1st time around, how he came to live with his uncle, and how he came to be a drug dealer. It also established that how he wasn’t always immune to the taunts on his status as an outsider but changed at the end of the story.
From the show, we already knew Eddie was going to fail. It’s crushing to see him come close to making it out. Especially since we know his ultimate fate. But it was nice to see how he came to be the Eddie we saw.
Did this satisfy my need to know more about Eddie? No. But then again, there’s no real way to do that given how he got killed off in the show. It would be nice if he got mentioned in the other tie-in books though.
