Junior library Guild Selection ? ABA Best Books Hey Aleah, I miss you. Because there's some serious donkey crap going on right now. I'm supposed to be at football camp, but noooo ... Andrew had to go missing! So because of my stupid little brother, I'll probably lose my chance at a scholarship and end up being nothing special. I'm pretty sure Andrew ran away to Florida, and now Gus and I have to drive cross-country to get him. Did you know Gus used to think Miss Piggy was hot? Anyway, Andrew once told me I needed to get my head out of my butt. So that's what I'm trying to do. How about a kiss for luck? Felton "Readers looking for a genuinely memorable first-person narratorin the vein of Sherman Alexie's Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian or Pete Hautman's Godless should really catch up to Stupid Fast."StarTribune
