Marcelo in the Real World by Francisco X. Stork

3.0

The star rating for this one is hard. I'd give the first 2/3 of the book five stars, and the solution to the problem in the novel one star. It seemed barely believable; why would Marcelo make the choice he did without considering other choices? It also suffered from Just-Ask-Already Syndrome. The characters are fantastic, I love Marcelo to pieces. I think these characters were worthy of a much better plot.
