So I just started my last review book (yes, I'm running late on these...) and I am absolutely amazed. The book is Trouble by Gary D. Schmidt (author of The Wednesday Wars).

Can I just say how jealous I am to read about a good review book? My last batch was great, but the first one I picked up to review this time

a) Is pretty much a biography of a son written by his father

b) Is so obviously not child lit

d) Actually had the line "not let the glory days of high school become the highlight of your life"

I wouldn't have thought I'd be the person to review Trouble, either, though, and I adored it... *shrug*
