About this audiobook
From the author of The Odds of Loving Grover Cleveland comes a hilarious and heartbreaking novel about coming apart, getting it together—and moving on. It’s just a two-hour drive—
Pondering math problems is Esther Ainsworth’s obsession. If only life’s puzzles required logic. Her stepfather’s solution? Avoidance. He’s exiled the family to Truth or Consequences, New Mexico, to erase a big secret from Esther’s past. So much for the truth. Now for the consequences: an empty swimming pool, a water-sucking cactus outside her window, a goldfish rescued from a church festival, and Esther’s thirst for something real.
Step one: forget about her first love. Step two: make allies. Esther finds them in Jesús from the local coffee bar; a girl named Color who finds beauty in an abandoned video store; Beth, the church choir outcast; and Moss, a boy with alluring possibilities. Step three: confess her secret to those she hopes she can trust. Esther’s new friends do more than just listen. They’re taking Esther one step further.
Together, they hit the road to face Esther’s past head-on. It’s a journey that will lead her to embrace her own truth—in all its glory, pain, and awesomeness.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Esther got pregnant and her parents forced her to give the baby up for adoption. They also moved from Ohio to New Mexico to start a new life away from the looks and comments of their neighbors. But all the while, Esther wondered what her baby looked like.In New Mexico, she meets a group of kids to hold her up during her down, questioning times.While the characters in The Infinite Pieces of Us are interested (named Color, Moss, Jesus) the story drags on. You kind of know the ending before hand, although there are some surprises. I did skim the last 50 pages in order to finish the book and didn't miss much in the skimming process. Overall, it was just an average book.
