Going Bovine by Libba Bray

Sixteen year old Cameron is just trying to get through high school with as little effort as possible. But life just got a little bit harder for him when he learns that he is terminally ill.
One day, an angel named Dulcie (who may or may not be a figment of Cameron’s imagination) comes to offer him a bit of hope. She tells him that there may be an antidote for his sickness, but he must search to find it. So, Cam sets off with a dwarf named Gonzo and a yard gnome on the road trip of a lifetime through America. On his journey he will learn what matters in life and how to make the most of the life we are given. Answers will be given to Cameron as he continues on his journey trying to figure out just what is real and what is imaginary.
