This story is brilliant, a page-turner in all the best ways. I ached for Adam, felt his pain, loved his goodness. All the characters are beautifully drawn, from Robyn, the love of his life, to his mentally ill mother, to the members of his OCD group and its counselor, Chuck. The pain is tempered with humor and love underlies the entire story. As a writer of young adult books, I know such work isn't easy and I admire the heck out of this writer. Review: Wow - This is a must read! I could hardly put the book down. The story was gripping and very well written. I will not tell you more then you must read it! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #3,141,605 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #69 in Teen & Young Adult Fiction on Marriage & Divorce #234 in Teen & Young Adult Fiction on Depression & Mental Health (Books) #2,437 in Teen & Young Adult Contemporary Romance | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (309) | | Dimensions | 5.88 x 1 x 8.56 inches | | Grade level | 7 - 9 | | ISBN-10 | 0553507869 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0553507867 | | Item Weight | 14.4 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 304 pages | | Publication date | March 10, 2015 | | Publisher | Delacorte Press | | Reading age | 12 years and up | ## Images ![The Unlikely Hero of Room 13B - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71b4D5bz-dL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant, achingly real *by V***S on January 14, 2016* I only write reviews when I have to lay down a book that I never want to let go of. This story is brilliant, a page-turner in all the best ways. I ached for Adam, felt his pain, loved his goodness. All the characters are beautifully drawn, from Robyn, the love of his life, to his mentally ill mother, to the members of his OCD group and its counselor, Chuck. The pain is tempered with humor and love underlies the entire story. As a writer of young adult books, I know such work isn't easy and I admire the heck out of this writer. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wow *by A***R on April 20, 2021* This is a must read! I could hardly put the book down. The story was gripping and very well written. I will not tell you more then you must read it! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Lovable Hero with OCD *by K***N on March 14, 2015* This is a very well-written book that was surprisingly fun, sweet and deep. The story centers around Adam, a fifteen-year-old kid with OCD (Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder). At the start of the story he's joined a support group for fellow OCD sufferers and immediately falls in love with one of the other teenagers, Robyn. The following love story between the two of them is sweet and I enjoyed watching Robyn and Adam help each other with their own OCD problems. Adam is a great main character. He's sweet but constantly unsure of himself, full of anxiety and dealing with multiple problems at home (mostly surrounding his mother, who is dealing with her own compulsive hoarding and depression). Adam's OCD escalates as the book goes on, and he is constantly trying to manage it and hide it. I thought the author did a great job describing just how much OCD can affect a person's life and just how time-consuming it can be (describing, for example, how it would often take Adam fifteen minutes just to walk through his front door at home). I especially loved Adam's support group, which was filled with quirky characters who all form an unlikely friendship. At the beginning of the book each of the members takes on a superhero name, and so we hardly hear their real names. Instead we deal with the likes of people such as Wonder Woman, Thor, Wolverine and Batman. The antics of the OCD support group were always amusing and at the same time provided insight into the different aspects that OCD can have. This was, overall, a very sweet coming-of-age story for Adam with a nice touch of romance and some great side characters. I really have no complaints about it, and it's a great story for anyone interested in learning about OCD. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/14053354-the-unlikely-hero-of-room-13b](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/14053354-the-unlikely-hero-of-room-13b) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-09*
