| Description: |
|
Stan Smith is a loser. At seventeen, the former junior chess champion turned "Town's Laziest Register Monkey at the Town's Only Video Stor" has no car, no college, and, of course, no girl. If that weren't pathetic enough, he's got an organic-food-freak vegan mother, an eccentric inventor father, a dead-end job, a dog with a flatulence problem, and a bonehead jock threatening to kill him. With a 165 IQ, Stan was expected to be somehting and go somewhere. But when all he has is a beat-up old bike that keeps getting vandalized, he's going nowhere faster.
Sean Beaudoin writes a hilarious coming-of-age story with the incredible wit and offbeat sarcasm reminiscent of David Sedaris and Tom Perrotta. This inventive debut novel introduces a unique voice to YA literature. |
