The House in the Cerulean Sea (Cerulean Chronicles, #1)

Heartwarming little fable, but wow is it didactic about prejudice and repression! It's a little bit risky to have a protagonist who starts off our tale both rigidly rule-following AND basically with no backstory whatsoever except a love of golden oldies music -- no family, no old traumas or significant events, no siblings, no friends, dude has never even been on vacation! -- and I'm not sure Klune pulls it off here. He is a writer who excels at heartbreak that can't ever really be healed and complex love affairs that often take time to work themselves out, and the main story here simply doesn't have the room for what he does best.
