Adam Rapp's YA novels are some of my favorites. I read a lot (I'm a librarian) but those stories felt like something so new, so unlike anything I'd read before. Real and raw are words I've used over and over to describe them. I picked up this book and fell in love with his storytelling again. Fear (the man in the laundromat), sadness (Denny, Myra, Joan, Fiona) disgust (Alec) and hope sort of sum up my reading experience. Beautiful writing. Thank you.
Profoundly moved by this book. Thank you for the video!
