Precocious yet sensitive teenager James has a deep perception of the world but no idea how to live in it. Finding no help from his divorced parents nor his older memoir-writing sister, he decides to reject the beliefs adults try to push on him, starting with the college career that is looming over his last summer in New York, and embarks instead on a search for wisdom through nontraditional means...

I quite enjoyed it. I really wanna read the book AND the screenplay though because i feel like it had almost all the elements of a good movie but something was just a little meh. Aubrey Plaza SLAYED her 5 minutes of screen time as always and also HOW hot was Lucy Liu?!
