Publisher Description
Josh Stephenson’s thirteenth year starts with a baffling sequence of events. His seventeen-year-old girl cousin moves into his house, making his bedroom a corridor, he devises a truancy plan to escape the embarrassment he suffers at school, and his estranged father sends him a stuffed falcon for his birthday. And on top of all that, he’s in love but wondering if dreams of love can ever come true. Josh goes to his secret hollow on the beach, a rocky outcropping along Iceland’s rugged coast, to try to work out if his life is being sucked into a black hole or if this is just being thirteen. Written with passion and humor, this coming-of-age novel explores the juxtaposition of teenage angst and ecstasy.

"Definitely a worthwhile read. The book puts you right into the heart of this boy becoming a teenager; angst, turmoil, hopelessness, hopefulness... very moving."

" This is one of those books "for teens" that's actually more for adults -- the teens who I'd give it too are few and far between, for, while a kind of sweet coming-of-age / sexual awakening story, the teen who thinks and / or talks like this is a rare bird indeed. "

" I picked this up for $4 at one of those clearance book sales on a whim and I'm glad I did. It was a quick, pleasant read and left me feeling good when it was over. "
