Someday This Pain Will Be Useful to You

If you have a special place in your heart for misfit teenagers, especially ones with a nice dry wit, then this is the book for you. Protagonist James Sveck is a late bloomer but a sweet one, a high school senior on his way to Brown (if he doesn't back out). Wading through his parents' divorce and coming to terms with his sexuality, James navigates his way into adulthood with some hilarious mishaps along the way.
