The Inexplicable Logic of My Life by Benjamin Alire Sáenz
3.0

Not quite a solid 4 stars, but definitely more than 3 stars.

Very slice of life, extraordinary-in-the-ordinary kind of thing. The idea of family, both biological and chosen, lies at the heart of this story, and I really appreciated that both are acknowledged as influential. Narrative style really captures what it feels like to be a teenager trying to figure out your identity and what you want to with your life and what said life means anyway.
