(4) YA SideStreets series. Dan is having a hard time in school because he's desperately trying to keep his family together while his mother's schizophrenia wreaks havoc. Despite his efforts, it's not until it all comes crashing down that he's able to salvage anything. With such a tight focus on the mental illness there is little room for character development in this compact, otherwise touching story.
