A sweet story, full of humor. The main characters are cute, but I think Owen's family was a protagonist by itself, especially the mother. The flashbacks were not really confusing, but somewhat inconsistent and they happened randomly, so I felt dragged out of the story sometimes, but I liked the author's writing and this story made me want to read something else by LB Gregg. I really liked Owen, I could totally relate to him, because I'm a bit socially unskilled too, so his inner struggles felt real. He is the narrator of the book and he has a very pleasing voice, with no self-pity and a very disenchanted (though not selfish) look at the world. Lovely.
