Beautiful story. While Benjamin Alire Saenz's writing style--short sentences, short chapters--isn't necessarily my favorite, he's brilliant at developing characters. Salvador, Sam, Fito, Sal's dad, Mima... I feel like I know them, and I feel so deeply for them. The Inexplicable Logic of My Life is a love story, but it's not a romance. It explores different kinds of love, especially that of friends and family, and discovering love when you don't always feel worthy of it. It's completely lovely.
