Stephanie Macneil

A surprise read, as I picked it up more on a whim than out of a strict inclination to read it. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The timeline skips a little, and it's not always the easiest to notice that the author has done so at any given moment. Similar though by no means as quirky as "Boy meets Boy" - David Levithan...though perhaps a far more "straight" telling of it. (in the lack of quirk not the lack of gay)

3.5 stars. Parker is the unluckiest kid on Earth! It felt like it was just disaster after disaster for him. But there was a beautiful friendship between him and Liam, and his relationship with his parents was lovely.
