Losing Joes Place

This book is about three friends named Jason, Ferguson, and Don who move into Jason's older brother Joe's apartment in Toronto for the summer. Their expectations for the summer is for a good time, zero for a bad time. There will be no parents, no rules and no problems. Once they arrive at the apartment complex, they find out its nothing like they imagined. The apartment complex is located in a run-down, dingy, part of the city. Next, they meet their landlord Plotnick, which is not a pleasant experience. He is a grumpy, older man, who has a major attitude problem. When the boys are all settled in the apartment, they go out for the night and have a good time. The following morning, they realize they had spent over $300.00. This is one of many obstacles the three boys would have to face during their stay. As the boys stepped outside the apartment, they had noticed Joe's camaro had been stolen. The following day, Jason received a postcard from Joe in Europe saying not to worry if the car was missing. Joe explained to Jason that he had made an agreement with his best friend Rootbeer, saying the car was his whenever he needed it. By that time, it had been too late. Jason had already filed a police report for a missing black camaro and the car was towed away. With a simple explanation to the police, the car was returned. They also had an unexpected expense, paying for a broken stair at the apartment complex. Jason, Ferguson, and Don realize that living on your own comes with many responsibilities.
