Borderline
Bonnie Rozanski
Borderline is a skewed coming-of-age story of a normal boy in a crazy world -- a fast-paced world of high-tech gismos, global air travel and antibiotics, a world in which high schools have replaced cafeterias with fast food counters and the scourges of autism, asthma, allergies, diabetes and obesity are the norm.

Borderline review by LSpro
Profile Picture

A brilliant coming-of-age story, Borderline portrays an overwhelmed older brother, an over-ignored son, and a determined caregiver in the form of Guy Ritter. And a teacher who has it out for you, a best friend who won't stop eating, and a temperamental semi-girlfriend isn't enough, Guy's also been dealing with his "autistic" brother for way too long. All of the problems Guy's been burdened with has created quite a bit of stress. What can a thirteen-year-old kid do when his best friend's father's fast food feasting becomes perilous?
