Be More Chill is a book about a kid who is extremely unpopular. He is frustrated and wishes that he was "In". He learns of a secret new pill called the "Squip". The squip enters your brain and tells everything to do to be cool. I think that the author wrote this book as a social comment to show that this isn't possible.
There are several things in the book that led me to believe that this was the theme. One of them is the fact that the layout of being an unpopular kid in high school is very cliche and if they didn't make a new twist on it instead of having a really cheesy theme like everyone is cool... bla bla bla..., it would have been a pretty bad book. But the way the author writes it is taking this cliche format and writing something meaningful about it.
