Will the real Rowan Pohi please stand? To dispel boredom while waiting for tenth grade to begin, Bobby and his friends create an imaginary kid named Rowan Pohi (that’s IHOP backwards) and apply to the prestigious Whitestone Prep in Rowan’s name. When, surprisingly, Rowan’s application is accepted, Bobby impulsively reinvents himself as Rowan and embarks on an edgy life of deception in the rarefied world of Whitestone. Told with Ralph Fletcher’s trademark blend of humor and depth, the story of Rowan’s rise and fall is a funny, poignant, and suspenseful riff on the adolescent search for identity. The e-book includes a sample chapter from Flying Solo by Ralph Fletcher.

I've had this one sitting on the review shelf for a couple of years. Very fast read, but completely one dimensional, and felt more like a first draft manuscript. Good idea, but no execution. I ranted to my fiancé and mother-in-law about this one.
