I m looking for a certain memoir about a boy who was abandoned by his mother?
I think his name was Ethan or Alan. His mom believed that she was going to become a famous poet and she dropped him off to her doctor who was hella creepy who had a daughter. The boy was sexually assaulted by a man who he thought was his boyfriend. I can t remember the name. I remember there being a bicycle on the cover though and "a memoir" written in cursive. Please help.

That was Running with Scissors by Augusten Burroughs. It is better than his sequel Dry, but not as good as his brother, John Elder Robison's memoir Look Me in the Eye, which tells of his life growing up undiagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome.
Oh and you got the cover wrong. Also his mother was marginally famous, for a poet in the last seventy years.
