Publisher's summary

Ethan’s life couldn’t possibly get any worse. His mom’s job isn’t enough to pay the rent, let alone anything that could make life more bearable. And to make it worse, now she’s decided to move them both in with her brother—some boring guy who has nothing better to do than make Ethan’s life miserable.

Uncle Garrett seems to be everywhere. Everyone knows him, everyone adores him, and it’s driving Ethan crazy. But when Ethan gets himself into trouble, those irritating things about Uncle Garrett start to make more sense. As Ethan learns to navigate his way through high school, he has to decide if he’s going to continue to do what he wants, or if he’s going to let his uncle change his life for the better.

Great storyline and meaningful messages!

Courtney and Nate masterfully combined an easy to follow story line with with scenarios that teach life lessons. As I listened I found myself either smiling without thinking, feeling anxious about the next development in the plot, or reminiscing about my own growing up years. I peacefully drifted back to a time when I wish I had listened more closely to the lessons taught to me by the important people in my life. This book can be equally engaging to adults and young people alike. And the principles shared can easily apply across the spectrum of generations. Simple. Engaging. Interesting. Fun. Happy. This is an all around great book!
