I just finished reading The Unlikely Hero of Room 13B by Teresa Toten, an author I don’t think I have read before. What a great book! Toten writes about Adam Spencer Ross, a teen battling OCD, and his family and group relationships as well as the girl in group that he falls in love with and vows to “save.”
His feelings and relationships and the way that OCD affects his life is very believable and relatable. The reader really ends up caring about him and how things will turn out. I was not surprised by the final plot twist, but expecting it did not make it any less enjoyable.
Teresa Toten’s writing is similar to that of John Green and Patrick Ness, who are well-known in the Contemporary YA market.
For her, Adam would be and could be normal and fearless. He so wanted to be fearless. He could do it. He would be her superhero.
