Ben never wanted to write a book. Being autistic, troubled, and the fourth child? It just doesn't sound like a very interesting story. That doesn't stop his therapist, Dr. White, from giving Ben a blank journal. And when Dr. White's mysterious (and slightly annoying) daughter, Julia White, blackmails Ben into joining the therapy program, Ben finds he has no choice but to testify.  
    
    So, he starts at the beginning: the day he stole a water bottle. From there, it only seems right to discuss his entrance into the group therapy program, his obsession with chocolate chip waffles, and the ever-crippled relationships with his parents and brothers. As Ben navigates his own life and works tirelessly to get himself out of therapy, self-discovery backfires in the worst way imaginable: he may not want to leave.  
    
    Not a Bestseller is a YA contemporary absurdist novel about a young boy burdened by society's labels. In a Great Gatsby meets Wimpy Kid style, it tackles its story head-on with healthy doses of sarcasm and a lot of love.
