(3) YA Illustrated by Tom Franco. Inspired by his namesake's Metamorphoses, high school junior Ovid records his struggles with overprotective parents, a drug-addicted runaway sister, identity issues, and his classmates' predicaments, creating his own modern-day mythology. Expressed through prose, poetry, and drawings, Ovid's labyrinth of thoughts and feelings has an edgy, authentic emotional resonance.
