The Beautiful Miscellaneous by Dominic Smith

327 pages
5 hours 23 minutes

This book is labelled YA in our library but after reading it, I believe I will move it to the Adult Fiction shelves.  My primary motivation in doing this is that although the main character narrates in the present tense, it is obvious that he is NOT a teenager.  In fact, I would argue that no teenager would act like this character.  It's more like watching one of those TV shows that has dialogue no real teenager would say.  This novel does not go on my top ten list -- or even my top 100.
