Whaley, John Lorey. HIGHLY ILLOGICAL BEHAVIOR
New York : Dial Books, 2016
ILYA
When it is really cold outside, or really hot, I wish that I didn't have to leave the house. I think about how great it would be if I didn't have to go to school or work or run errands. Just stay home where it is safe. Of course most people feel like that at times but Solomon feels that way all the time. As a matter of fact, he hasn't left the house since middle school. That time his panic attack was so bad that he tore off his clothes and jumped into the school fountain. He now lives with comic books, card games and homeschooling. Therapy hasn't worked and his parents worry that he will never be able to leave the house without having a panic attack. When Lisa, a high school junior who used to be a classmate, contacts him and wants to visit, Sol has some big decisions to make. Will he let the outside world in even if he can't go out? And why does Lisa want to see him? Will this be a good thing for Sol or put him further inside?
