Three three-dimensional best friends, families that genuinely love each other, disability and homosexuality just tossed in like the normal parts of life they are, and it&#8217;s even set in Boston!  Sold.
The plot is complicated &#8212; there&#8217;s a deaf kid, a theater production, a wacky road trip to New York (does it count as a [...]]]></description>

This was a request from Zix, who wanted to know what I thought of this after reading Luna.  (I do take requests, btw &#8212; if there&#8217;s a YA novel you want me to review, just let me know!  I&#8217;d rather post stuff I know people want to read.)

A couple of weeks ago, I suggested a Group Read of this one, in honor of President Obama&#8217;s inauguration.  (Man, the phrase &#8220;President Obama&#8221; ain&#8217;t getting old anytime soon.)  The premise (in case you haven&#8217;t been murmuring &#8220;gay Jewish president&#8221; in your sleep) is that the first gay Jewish president is elected by [...]]]></description>

To celebrate the inauguration of President Obama, I hereby announce a Group Read!  The book is Wide Awake, by David Levithan (author of the fabulous Boy Meets Boy), and it begins:

&#8220;I can&#8217;t believe there&#8217;s going to be a gay Jewish president.&#8221;
As my mother said this, she looked at my father, who was still staring [...]]]></description>

How I Paid for College is one of my top 5 funniest books.  (Not sure what the others are, honestly.  Gordon Korman&#8217;s Son of Interflux and I Want to Go Home! are in there, for sure.)  It is my standard Beach Reading Recommendation, and if I haven&#8217;t pushed it on you, consider [...]]]></description>
