LIKE WE CARE, by Tom Matthews

One of the more enjoyable books I've read recently, Like We Care is an ironic attack on the teen consumer culture we are all drowning in. The story is about an accidental teen hero who leads a nationwide boycott of an MTV-type product called R2Rev, with tragi-comic results. Captures teen angst and the whole cultural milieu very well.
