Got Zen? Use your Buddha radar to reach and read this amazing book, Zen and the Art of Faking It by Jordan Sonnenblick! San Lee is an average teenager, or at least he wants to be. After his father is put behind bars, San and his mother are dirt poor and forced to move to a no-man’s-town in Pennsylvania. San faces that the odds are not with him that he will become ordinary. But what about extraordinary? San decides to fake his past and pretend he is a zen master. Being a zen master has perks, but leads to disaster. San has barely any knowledge about zen and Buddhism! From a girl San is trying to impress with his act to a basketball game that goes terribly wrong, San discovers the true meaning of being yourself and the consequences of lying.
My review of Zen and the Art of Faking It is five stars! Jordan Sonnenblick has the humor, lesson and just plain ol’ awesomeness you want to read! My favorite part is probably towards the end, but I can’t tell you how it ends (unless you got candy in your pocket you can bribe me with…)! So go to the library to check out Zen and the Art of Faking It by Jordan Sonnenblick!
