The writing flows smoothly in We Are Inevitable by Gayle Forman, but what happens when the protagonist believes it is all flowing into an inevitable drain? Aaron Stein feels stuck in his family bookstore, and, as his story unfolds, readers navigate the surprising twists as they quickly turn pages. Readers experience Aaron's emotional highs and lows as he tries to figure out who he is, what he wants, and just what is inevitable, or would be inevitable if the surprises didn't keep happening. Readers, like Aaron, expect certain outcomes, but the unforeseen and the misunderstood take both Aaron and the reader toward a not-so-inevitable conclusion.
Forman has created heartwarming characters, a soul-stirring setting, and a plot that is heartrending yet uplifting. An unexpected and unpredictable story, We Are Inevitable reminds readers that the best books, and lives, don't belong in a box.
