Jason is a likeable protagonist who uses humor as a way to deal with the problems that life is throwing at him. After the death of his mother, the only woman that could keep his father “normal”, it quickly becomes Jason’s sole responsibility to keep what is left of his family together, even if that means having a father who sees images of Greek Mythology and refuses to take his medicine, no heat, no money and barely any food . Secretly, Jason is hoping that someone will take notice of his actions in school, but only after he is referred to an at-lunch counseling group does he truly recognize the dangers that this possesses. Nolan navigates the difficulties of high school, death, divorce, drug addiction and mental instability through Jason and his friends. Readers are exposed to a very real and dramatic view of a life surrounded by mental illness and all that in entails. Through it all Jason understand the true meaning of a family and the importance of having a healthy support system.
