Description
Over the span of his high school career, we follow unpopular Todd Anderson through several moves, changing of schools, and his journey to discover that popularity doesn't exclude you from life's problems.
We meet Todd—an unpopular 1990's teenager living in Springdale, Missouri—as he starts his freshman year of Catholic high school. Over the span of four years, we follow Todd on his journey of heartbreak, parental conflict, and cross-country moves. And he might even get the "popularity" title he's always wished for...
For fans of Normal People and Election, this darkly comical coming-of-age story delves into the social issues we all face in high school and beyond.

5.0 out of 5 stars A THOUGHT-PROVOKING JOURNEY FOR YOUNG ADULTS.
Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2020
A well-written nostalgic page-turner. This novel is about a teenage boy struggling to adapt to high school in a small mid-western town. This is a captivating story, full of unexpected twists and heartbreak, but with a satisfying ending. This engaging story displays the hazards of fitting in. Captivating and heartwarming for YA.

A thrilling high school coming of age novel. The book cover could be changed to be more appealing, but other than that, the content of the book itself is awesome. Props to the author.

You couldn't pay me to be a teenager again, but I was rooting for Todd because of the great writing.

A sincere thank you to the publisher, author and Netgalley for providing me with an ebook copy of this book in exchange for a fair and honest review.
This is not my usual genre, however I wanted to take the opportunity to read something from outside my norm. And I am glad I did!! Thank you for opening up my mind to something totally different. Characters were so well developed that I felt as though I knew them. I love when a book draws you into the story and it feels like you are living it with them.
