Maynard and Jennica by Rudolph Delson
4.0

This was a witty, charming, yet literary, story of a young couple developing a romance in New York City. It was funny and compelling. It was told via first person narration of all the characters involved, so each section was as if the narrator was recounting or reporting on "what happened." Basically, at its simplest it is the story of the two lovers, but it is so originally and quirkily told, that you feel entertained at a "meatier" level. People who have enjoyed Nicole Krauss and Jonathan Safran Foer would probably enjoy this novel.
