2009 book 6

Jeremy Jackson's Life at these Speeds
I reread most of this while waiting at the DMV today--good times, good times. This is probably one of the most incredible novels I've ever read and I read it the first time solely by chance--I still have no idea why the publisher was giving away free copies at ALA a couple of years after it first came out, but I'm extremely grateful. For those who haven't read it, it's about a high school track star who's struggling to move on after his entire middle-school team (including his girlfriend) was killed in an accident. A+.
