Rats Saw God
Overview & Summary
Steve York, a once-promising student now failing his senior year, is required to write a hundred pages for his school counselor as an alternative to expulsion, and in doing so unearths a painful account of his family's breakup, his complicated relationship with his astronaut father, and his first serious romance. Rob Thomas's novel (written before he created the TV series Veronica Mars) is a sharp, voice-driven story about grief and disillusionment.
