Bookroo's summary

Thirteen-year-old Milo Cruikshank finds frustration everywhere, from his annoying neighbors to his failed attempts to get Summer Goodman to notice him. Since his mother died, nothing has gone right: the house that used to be full of music is filled with Fog, and his dad, his sister and Milo himself have all changed. Told with Milo's own doodles, a funny and moving story of grief.

From the publisher

Loveable thirteen-year-old geek Milo Cruikshank finds reasons for frustration at every turn, from the annoying habits of his neighbors to his futile efforts to get Summer Goodman to realize his existence. The truth is, ever since Milo's mother died, nothing has gone right. Now instead of the kitchen being full of music, his whole house has been filled with Fog. Nothing's the same. Not his Dad. Not his sister. And definitely not him. Milo achieves a rare and easy balance of poignancy and awkward, natural humor, making it deeply accessible--this is the kind of book that can change lives.
