The Disenchantments by Nina LaCour
4.0
This was not my favorite of Nina LaCour's, let's just get that out of the way. I was actually a little surprised that the main character and narrator was male, but it didn't take away and I still really enjoyed it. However. I didn't like Colby. It wasn't that he was a boy, it was the way that he treated the other characters and But! I loved the other characters so much! The writing was, of course, fantastic, and I really loved the openness and realness of the ending . This is definitely not a *fun summer YA read* as the cover suggest, it is definitely more of an emotional ride and deals with the tough decisions that people feel forced to make after high school, which hit home to me. I also think that the novel has a very refreshing and fun look at life, albeit very free spirited.
