A smart and empathetic story about a teen whose attempt to grieve his father's death from cancer keeps getting derailed by everyone in his life. Dean's internal monologue keeps him well away from the annoying whiny/sympathy line that plagues so many teen protagonists these days. He has to deal with not caring about school or going on to college, his mother letting his late father's law partner move in, Mom's determination to 'normalize' him by dominating his therapy sessions, the law partner's son who is a total hedonistic jerk, and his intense feelings for Olivia, his super confident (or so Dean thinks) neighbor. Watching him navigate all of this makes for a fast and very enjoyable read. ( ) sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
