April is the cruelest month. Or coolest. Newly graduated Ike needs to move out before his obsession with his best friend's girlfriend gets the better of him. But where can he live? With Jenny, the punk rock girls who lives in chaos? Stacy, the strange girl from the past who suddenly latched onto him? Or back with his mom in the deadly boring suburbs with her bizarre boyfriend? Ike's exploration of his options leads him into a world he didn't expect to find, and an outcome that will change him forever.
