Notes from the Midnight Driver by Jordan Sonnenblick
4.0
This was a quick read and sweet story of sixteen-year old Alex, who has to do community service at a nursing home after a drunk driving incident involving a neighbor's garden gnome. He is assigned to crotchety Sol, who loves to insult others almost as much as he loves to play practical jokes on them. While their initial interactions make Alex want to run for cover, a bond forms between the two, and Alex begins to think of more than just finishing his "hard time."
This is my second Jordan Sonnenblick book, and this one actually has appearances from both Steven and Annette of "Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie." I preferred "Drums" slightly more, but "Notes from the Midnight Driver" was also very well done. Fans of Gary Schmidt, R.J. Palacio, or Fiona Woods should give Jordan Sonnenblick a try!
