The Rest of Us Just Live Here by Patrick Ness

3.0

This book was pretty -meh- for me. At the beginning of each chapter, you see what the "indie" kids (who would've been the main characters in any other story) are up to while main characters are dealing with their own personal drama. I kept hoping throughout the book that Mikey and his friends would end up getting involved with the background plot that the indie kids were involved in. As some other reviews have mentioned, I liked the concept of following the background characters a lot more than the execution.
