#BookReview of 100 Sideways Miles by Andrew Smith

About the Book: 

Finn Easton sees the world through miles instead of minutes. It's how he makes sense of the world, and how he tries to convince himself that he's a real boy and not just a character in his father's bestselling cult-classic book. Finn has two things going for him: his best friend, the possibly-insane-but-definitely-excellent Cade Hernandez, and Julia Bishop, the first girl he's ever loved. 

Then Julia moves away, and Finn is heartbroken. Feeling restless and trapped in the book, Finn embarks on a road trip with Cade to visit their college of choice in Oklahoma. When an unexpected accident happens and the boys become unlikely heroes, they take an eye-opening detour away from everything they thought they had planned—and learn how to write their own destiny.

My Review: I was actually surprised by how much I enjoyed this! I was expecting to enjoy it, but it was even better than expected. My main complaint is that the love interest, Julia, felt like she had no personality. Their relationship and love felt a little random, like where did it come from. Mainly, this book is about finding oneself, finding the true you. This was a book a had a hard time putting down because I always wanted to know what happened next.
