Sebastian is one of those eccentric kids who has been raised by his grandma in a geodesic dome. You know the type--shy, awkward, brilliant, and sheltered. His life is turned upside down when grandma has a stroke. Luckily a family he just met is willing to take him in, mainly out of selfishness. For that family has Jared, a moody heart-transplant survivor who doesn't have any friends. Jared and Sebastian become friends, luckily, since they don't have anyone else besides family.
Over the next few weeks, Sebastian comes out of his shell--falling in love and learning about friendship and family. This is a sweet, sweet look at family and a great coming-of-age story. Lots of great punk rock references, too!
Give this to The Fault in Our Stars fans!
