Opinion:
For What It's Worth is both an amusing and suspenseful book, packed with high school pranks and criminal acts. The descriptions, especially of the criminal acts, made it seem like I was watching an action movie. The characters' roles were described well. The author's use of Jon Ryan as the narrator made the storyline easy to read and understand.
