"The Vast Fields of Ordinary" by Nick Burd


Dade just graduated high school and now needs to survive the summer months until he can leave his broken home for college. His so-called boyfriend won't acknowledge his existence in public and now he's becoming enthralled by Alex, the local drug-dealer.
Follow Dade's real-to-life struggle with his sense of personal worth and the purpose of life, as his decisions and outlook determine whether he will survive college and beyond. Each character is very well written and defined making the story easy to become addicted to. With angst, teen love, and parental confusion, this book should appeal to any open-minded reader.
