About
If you enjoy witty, offbeat coming-of-age stories with awkward teen emotions and a strong sense of place, Submarine may click—Not for you if you want a straightforward, high-action teen romance like The Spectacular Now or a lighter, breezier dating tale like Say Anything.
Pros: witty, emotionally truthful; coming-of-age focus; distinctive British style | Cons: stylized narration; slow pacing; some unlikeable choices
