Commentary Concering Books Bruiser
"There’s a reason why Brewster can’t have friends – why he can’t care about too many people. Because when he cares about you, things start to happen. Impossible things that can’t be explained. I know, because they're happening to me."When Brontë starts dating Brewster “Bruiser” Rawlins – the guy voted “Most Likely to Get the Death Penalty” her twin brother, Tennyson, isn’t surprised. But then strange things begin to occur. Tennyson and Brontë’s scrapes heal unnaturally fast, and cuts disappear before their eyes. What at first seems like their good fortune turns out to be more than they bargained for…much more.

Oh my goodness, this was great.this book is just a giant bundle of pain and I love it.
This book bummed me out. Not because it was a downer, necessarily, but because I could see all this room for excellence in it that never was fully realized. I think Shusterman is good at developing a likable and mildly amusing voice for his characters, but man if they don't all sound the same. And the poetry sections? Horrifying. Bruiser is the story of twins Tennyson and Bronte, and the changes that Bronte's new boyfriend (Brewster, commonly known as the Bruiser) makes in their lives. I'm about
While not my favorite Shusterman novel, it was really well done. I loved the messages it had, and I found myself really caring for the characters a lot. I don't want to give anything away since it's so short and quick, so I won't say anything other than I like how the novel made me think about what I would do in the characters' situations.
Again not a book review, but a review of my writing process for BRUISER. The idea of telling a story about an empath who can take on peoples pain had been with me for a while but it wasnt until I started toying with the idea of a character who could take on psychological and emotional pain that I got really interested in telling this story. We THINK we want our hurts taken away from us, but the more I thought about it, the more I realized that surrendering our emotional pain cripples us. We
This was more than 3 stars but not quite 4 stars but I think the story was original enough that I'm going to round up. It is a story about Brewster who is a loner who the high school kids call Bruiser. He lives with his uncle and little brother. It is also the story of twins Bronte and Tennyson. Bronte befriends Brewster. Brewster has a secret that I can't reveal without spoiling the story so I will just say that Brewster's friendship with Bronte brings out his secret which was good and bad.
At first I was dreading that this would be a romance, but luckily it was actually an incredible, fast-paced supernatural tale of a guy with abilities that his friends can hardly even grasp, and Shusterman (author of Unwind and Scythe) never lets up on the thrills, friendship and excitement.
