Synopsis via Goodreads
Andrew Winston Winters is at war with himself.
He’s part Win, the lonely teenager exiled to a remote Vermont boarding school in the wake of a family tragedy. The guy who shuts all his classmates out, no matter the cost.
But he’s also part Drew, the angry young boy with violent impulses that control him. The boy who spent a fateful summer with his brother and teenage cousins, only to endure a family secret so painful it led three children to do the unthinkable.
Over the course of one night, while stuck at a party deep in the New England woods, Andrew battles the pain of his past and the isolation of his present. Before the sun rises, he’ll either surrender his sanity to the wild thoughts inside his mind or learn that surviving can mean more than not dying.

This one sounds sooo good and mysterious, as well as potentially deep. I can't wait for this one to come out! What do you think? Have you seen this one around?
This book caught my interest first solely because the author and I have the same first name. But I am very intrigued by the summary which sounds very isolated and intensely focused on just the one male character unlike a lot of other YA.
ReplyDeleteI've been seeing this book around, and I'm really liking the synopsis. Great WoW pick!
