| Summary |
Fifteen-year-old Grace Welles is barely surviving life at a third-tier boarding school in the Florida swamps when she accidentally saves new student Wade Scholfield and everything changes. |
|
"Grace Welles is stuck at a third-tier boarding school in the swamps of Florida, where her method of survival is strict, self-imposed loneliness. And it works. Her crap attitude keeps people away because, without friends, there are fewer to lose. But when she accidentally saves the new kid, Wade Scholfield, from being beaten up, everything about her precaiously balanced loner world collapses, and, in order to find her footing again, she has no choice but to discover a completely new way to exist. Because with Wade around, school rules are optional, weird is okay, and conversations about wormholes can lead to make-out sessions that disrupt any logical stream of thought. Nothing's perfect, but that's not the point. When they're together, everything seems uncomplicated in a way that Grace knows is not possible. Except it is. So why does Grace smash Wade's heart into a million pieces?"--Jacket. |
