iBoy

iBoy by Kevin Brooks is nothing like i have ever read before. its about a boy named Tom and he runs into a little bit of an accident. an iPhone is thrown from a window and smashes into Tom's skull. leaving fragments of iPhone data in his brain. he gains all new powers that have devastating effects on those around him. he chooses to use his power to save Lucy, the girl he loves. but to kill all of the people who raped Lucy leads to all new disasters. like who his father is. Tom starts to hunt a man responsible of the 2 gangs in his town. but the hunt leads to more death and pain for both Tom and Lucy. he tracks Lucy and her feeling by a Bebo account he made for iBoy. iBoy is his power. so Lucy falls for iBoy. or so he thinks. he doesnt know that she likes Tom aswell. so its the basic fight till death to get the girl type of book. but what i find strange about it, is that he doesnt care if he kills anyone. like its "o yeah im just gonna throw this guy out of the window thats 30 stories up and i dont care". dealing with death obviously isnt an issue with Tom. only dealing with love and power apparently. its full of action and not really a love story. but finding who he is and who hes meant to be.
