Not a Bestseller

Ben never wanted to write a book. Being autistic, troubled, and the fourth child? It just doesn't sound like a very interesting story. That doesn't stop his therapist, Dr. White, from giving Ben a blank journal. And when Dr. White's mysterious (and slightly annoying) daughter, Julia White, blackmails Ben into joining the therapy program, Ben finds he has no choice but to testify. So, he starts at the beginning: the day he stole a water bottle. From there, it only seems right to discuss his entrance into the group therapy program, his obsession with chocolate chip waffles, and the ever-crippled relationships with his parents and brothers. As Ben navigates his own life and works tirelessly to get himself out of therapy, self-discovery backfires in the worst way imaginable: he may not want to leave. Not a Bestseller is a YA contemporary absurdist novel about a young boy burdened by society's labels. In a Great Gatsby meets Wimpy Kid style, it tackles its story head-on with healthy doses of sarcasm and a lot of love.

GOOD GIRL’S 10 NAUGHTY LISTS

Yelena came from a conservative family. All her actions had to conform to their rules— she always had to wear clothes that went over her knees; she had to go straight home after school; vices, hanging out, having a boyfriend, or courting were forbidden. She was supposed to focus only on studying. She was happy, yes, she was, back then. But as time passed, she began to feel suffocated. There were many things she had yet to experience. She had never cut class, attended school events, or tasted alcohol. She didn’t know what it felt like to have a boyfriend or to go out. She wondered, was she normal? Was she even human? She also wanted to experience making mistakes. That’s why she made a list— a list of things a woman who wants to be free from manipulation does. That was her way of rebelling against the people around her, to at least prove to herself that she was still human. But as she started doing those things, Angelo suddenly appeared— a stranger Yelena never imagined would come into her life . . .

Full of twists and turns. Characters are truly relatable and endearing. Pleasant surprises. Sad stories that pull at your heart strings. Situational settings that make you think about what you know, feel, and your values. A dark story that is all too human. Waiting to see this author on the NYTIMES bestseller lists.

Readers love a good love story. Readers love to read about love. If you look at the bestseller lists at any time of the year, you’ll usually find one or two romance novels climbing their way up the charts. I'm sure this novel would be propelled to stardom thanks to drama, suspense and slice of life...

Great novel! Some of the characters are a bit odd, but some reviews mention that this is due to the comics, so I won't go into detail. I hope this novel makes it onto the bestseller lists.
