The narrators are young adults or teenagers making bold decisions and throwing logic away to satisfy their own desires. In We Real Cool, the author recognizes what they are doing and is blatantly breaking the rules and doing what he or she wants, knowing that in the end it will lead to the ultimate sacrifice, a young death.

    Young adult novels have seemed to made a name for themselves. Unfortunately, it is not a name that would be craved. The stories have become carbon copies of each other, spanning from their cookie cutter characters to their uninteresting stories.
