Storyline
The hero of the book is 18-year-old Addison Schacht, a Jewish high-school senior in Washington D.C.. The book is his response to the essay question, "What are your best and worst qualities?". He explains he has only bad qualities, as illustrated by the events of his senior year. They include collecting offensive jokes; dealing drugs to his classmates; and insulting teachers, fellow students, and his girlfriend's mother. But his classmate is killed, and he begins to investigate the death.

November Criminals (2017) This is a crime drama about college bound
friends find themselves falling for one another, but after the
mysterious murder of their classmate, they defy the authorities to
uncover the truth. The film has been released straight to video on
demand, before a limited theatrical release. It stars Ansel Elgort
(Baby Driver) and Chloë Grace Moretz (Kick Ass). These are two of my
favorite young actors of today. Viewers had mixed reactions and critics
felt it was very thin. Everyone seems to agree it failed to to reach
its potential. There simply wasn't any movement in the film. I want to
get an understanding of the crime. They failed to give us pieces to the
puzzle until nearly the close of the film. This is actually a film that
could have been far better with just a little more time. Both the love
story and the investigation needed to be beefed up. It would have
helped get the viewers more invested. I would have tweaked the ending
myself. Not horrible, just weak.
