A moving, funny, explosive debut, and a truly memorable voice. Includes the protagonists eight-page manga comic at the end.My dad was killed in the 9/11 attacks. But the stuff in this book isnt about that. Its about the summer my mom went away. The summer that me and Jed and Priti tried to catch a suicide bomber and prevent an honor killing. Theres stuff about how we built a tree house and joined the bomb squad; how I found my dad and Jed lost his; and how we both lost our moms then found them again. So its not really about 9/11 but, then again, none of those things would have happened if it hadnt been for that day. So I guess its all back to front, sort of.
