Hole In My Life

I have read the first 30 pages of the book "Hole In My Life" by Jack Gantos. So far the story is about a misfit teenager in high school who doesn't have too many friends and this eventually leads him to some trouble(He goes to jail).I think this is sort of similar to the book "Demon Thief" by Darren Shan.(I actually read the whole book) In Demon thief the main character, Kernal, feels out of place, he is a misfit boy with no friends who gets into some dangerous situations because he felt lonely and out of place.
