Just in Case by Meg Rosoff is an interesting book, to say the least. David, or Justin as he changes his name, is convinced that Fate is out to get him. Yes, Fate. The story will have you wondering whether Fate is actually tracking him, or if Justin is suffering a psychotic mental breakdown. Or maybe a little bit of both. The way that Justin contracts his illness is incredibly interesting. This book will have you entranced until the very end, then will leave you a lot of things to ponder. I'd definetely recommend it. It's a quick read.

What a fascinating little book. I had read a review here and had to check it out myself. Rosoff gets intot he head of a young boy, floundering for his own identity and what a world he creates for himself! Read it. Sweet, painful, delightful interactions - just an all and out great book!

Excellent book; by no means run-of-the-mill.
