It was okay, while I enjoyed the cultural references, the parade of boyfriends and celebrity encounters started to get on my nerves. I felt that this took away from the serious aspect of the book, namely that of having an autistic sibling. I felt that Bobby was by far the best and most carefully constructed character, but everyone in his wake were boring including the main character and each boyfriend of the year. Still, it is fun to read a book in which the character is the same exact age as you and you can relate to the brand names and cultural phenomena of that time. All in all, it will travel well to the beach or the pool
