Playing the Cards You're Dealt by Varian Johnson
3.0
The third-person narrator literally helps the story move along at points. Loads of crazy/expected things in the life of a new 5th grader. "Know when to hold them...". Lots of spades and cards references throughout, so get used to them.
Side note: the book does a great job of teaching the reader how to play spades. So you have no excuse by the end to not know how to play.
- addiction, abandonment, new relationships, failing friendships, & fighting all play a role in this book.
