Synopsis
Manhood, growing up, and family relationships are at the center of this tense, engaging young-adult novel by the author of the bestseller SPEAK. High-school senior Troy Miller has always been considered a loser, but after bulking up a bit and creating a dubious reputation at his high school via a spray-paint stunt, he finds himself appealing to none other than the most popular girl in school, Bethany Millbury. Confused by Bethany's attention, coping with his father's emotionally abusive behavior, and struggling in school, Troy is constantly caught between self-hatred and acceptance. When a dangerous situation arises that could potentially change his life forever, Troy must figure out what it means to take control and stand up for himself.

Industry Reviews
"As tension mounts, Tyler reaches a crisis point revealed through one of the most poignant and gripping scenes in young adult literature."
(02/15/2007)

"Anderson remains a master at formulating small but apt symbols for emotional truths that trigger both thought and identification on the part of readers...This is a gripping exploration of what it takes to grow up, really grow up, against the wishes of people and circumstances conspiring to keep you the victim they need you to be."
(04/01/2007)

"The familial clashes feel suffocatingly, terrifyingly authentic here...[I]t's the kind of book that some readers, particularly boys, will keep under their beds for years, turning to it again and again for comfort and a sense of solidarity...What Anderson finds in this book is a way to celebrate the urges traditionally associated with male adolescence--for sex, for domination, for power--without glorifying violence or misogyny."
