(4) YA Dylan Mint has Tourette's syndrome, and things go from bad to worse when he becomes convinced he's going to die. He winnows his bucket list down to three things: get laid, find a new friend for best friend Amir, and bring Dad back from the war. Plot is minimal (and slow), but the narrative voice is engaging and the issues raised are important.
