Highly Illogical Behavior took me by surprise with how much I enjoyed it. This book had me hooked the whole way through, rooting for Solomon and wondering how everything would turn out in the end. I loved every little detail of this book from Solomon’s relationship with his grandmother, to the regular Star Trek references. Solomon felt like a fully developed individual with hobbies, preferences, and an entire life built for himself inside his house.

I did find the character Lisa to be a bit frustrating at times. However, her behavior being morally questionable is the point, so I think not enjoying her character is appropriate in some ways. 

Although the climax of the book was sudden and happened rather quickly, I overall enjoyed the way the story wrapped up and I felt satisfied with the conclusion. 

I definitely recommend you check out this book if you have not already!
