Adam eventually finds love, but in a twist of fate, he must find a way to win her back. Sometimes you just have to wait for the thing you want most. 'The world is full of unmet friends,' Adam writes in his new journal soon after he turns sixteen. Adam has spent most of the last four years running and reading. Running made him stronger and more confident; reading taught him all he knows about the opposite sex: women are fascinating and often unobtainable.Topics of friends, fate, affection, trust, self-confidence, competition, bananas, defeat, patience, and finally capturing a life’s dream are all themes.
