It's not often that one finds a novel as wacky and as full of unexpected surprises as Losing Joe's Place, a book by Gordon Korman. It is the story of Jason Cardone and his friends Ferguson "The Peach" Peach and Don "Mr. Wonderful" Champion, and a summer they spend in the big city of Toronto, subletting the totally cool bachelor apartment that belongs to Jason's brother, Joe. Joe's instructions to the three teenagers boil down to one main thing: DON'T GET EVICTED!! The story shows us just how hard it can be to follow this one simple direction.
