Highly Illogical Behavior by John Corey Whaley
3.0
I think this one is a 3.5 star rating.
I mostly liked the characters in this story, though I sometimes found Lisa a bit overbearing/annoying. She basically spent most of the book acting as if she actually knew enough psychology to "help" Solomon, when she was nothing more than a seventeen-year-old high school student. I loved the friendship of Clark and Solomon though. I enjoy reading about geeky friendships. And I did see a decent amount of character development within the story, so that's good. I guess my main issue was that I didn't really like the writing style of this one. I wanted to bond and connect with the characters more and the narrative flow made me feel a little clinically detached from it all. Still, it was a nice contemporary read and I enjoyed being a part of Solomon's journey.
