Has anyone read Catalyst by Laurie Halse Anderson?

It's definitely one of my all-time favorite books.

Any other thoughts on it?

What is it about? I'd google it, but I feel lazy right now.

I think that I have heard of it.
I am a published author with two novels on the market.

I've read it...

I was kind of disappointed by it, I guess. I loved "Speak" which is by the same author, but I wasn't as impressed with "Catalyst."

Yeah, I agree with Fireweed. I read Speak, which is wonderful. Well, I read it in seventh grade. Perhaps it is still wonderful. Anyway, I read Catalyst after that, and it just wasn't that great. I wasn't as attached to the main character.
