This was a book that wasn't directed at me in anyway yet I adored it.  It follows a teenage boy as he learns and grows who he is as a person.  I connected to the parents in this book.  Raising teenagers is hard, you have your own issues and as your kids age they realize the parent isn't all knowing and can make mistakes but in the end love is what can make a person whole.  Really well done coming of age story.
