Description from the amazon:
How many teens have their poetry adapted to music by today’s rock star?

Every teen’s dream, but actually a nightmare for Rich Cameron. Despite his mother’s divorce, another broken home, his friend’s ruined Olympic dreams and his own major health complication, it’s a very interesting year for U2’s favorite genius.

Just as his life started to make sense again, Rich receives a letter from his former au pair, leading to revelations that set the tone for an unforgettable year. The mysteries, pains and ecstasy of love will force Rich and his family to redefine what is 'normal' all over again, in this funny, touching, and thrilling new chapter in the life of Rich Cameron and his constant companion, U2.

My two-bits:
In-a-word(s): reflections
Enjoyable read about the ups and downs of a likable, brainy YA.

The character development and interaction is what makes this book a gem. I loved how family and friends came together for support.
