Notes from a Midnight Driver, by Jordan Sonnenblick


What a year! Just because I got a little drunk, had one measly car crash, and ran over a garden gnome, I'm stuck performing community service at a nursing home for Solomon Lewis, the meanest, crankiest resident. This summarizes Alex's position at the beginning of the novel. Over the next nine months, Alex and Solomon learn that each has talents to share with the other. Written in a somewhat diary style, we follow Alex's journey to understanding Solomon. Also making an appearance are Steven and Annette from the author's book, Drums, Girls & Dangerous Pie.
