*ORIGINAL SERIES NOW STREAMING ON NETFLIX*At 16, I pretended to fall in love with Alyssa.Meet James and Alyssa, two typical-seeming teenagers facing the fears of coming adulthood. As their story unfolds, the chapters alternating between each character's perspective, this somewhat familiar teenage experience takes a more nihilistic turn. With James becoming rapidly more sociopathic, and Alyssa willfully ignoring his violent fantasies, they are forced to take a road trip that owes as much to Badlands as The Catcher in the Rye -- and threatens both their futures forever.One of the most talked about graphic novels of recent years, The End of The Fucking World marks Charles Forsman's UK debut.

""Every time I look at him, I see a boy I love and a ******* stranger."<br/><br/>I really enjoyed The End of the ******* World. It's a very quick read, and the story is quite interesting. It's pretty morbid and violent, so just be aware if you decide to pick this one up. It's a good little ****** up love story. <br/><br/>I liked James and Anna, and I'm very excited to watch the show - I hope there's more info about some of the "bad people" in the story. I would have been totally fine with this being longer."
