A heart-swelling debut for fans of The Silver Linings Playbook and The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time.

For Zelda, a twenty-one-year-old Viking enthusiast who lives with her older brother, Gert, life is best lived with some basic rules:
1. A smile means “thank you for doing something small that I liked.”
2. Fist bumps and dabs = respect.
3. Strange people are not appreciated in her home.
4. Tomatoes must go in the middle of the sandwich and not get the bread wet.

    Carol did not have a husband or a boyfriend, but she had a daughter that hated her guts. Carol did not want to talk about why her daughter hated her. She did like to talk about how good her daughter was doing in school.

    Marxy started telling me everything about sex that he had learned, about spermicide and condoms, and all the different ways to do it.

    “I wrote it all down,” he said, and took out a piece of paper that had been folded a lot. There were words by the pictures of naked people.

    “Wow,” I said.

    “This one is my favorite,” he said, and pointed to one where the woman and the man faced each other. “Because you can kiss while having sex.”

    He was getting “riled up,” which is what AK47 said whenever Marxy got too excited. He took out his asthma puffer and inhaled.

    Some of the people in the McDonald’s were looking over but I didn’t care. I thought it was very sexy how excited Marxy was getting about us having sex. I thought that this was my boyfriend, and he loved me so much that he couldn’t breathe.

    Hendo held up the baby and said his name was Artem.

    “My grandfather was this old-school Russian dude. Doesn’t Artem look old-school?”

    I wasn’t sure what that meant.
