Preview: Hear it

This wasnt the way it was supposed to go. Youre just a typical fifteenyearold sophomore, an average guy named Kyle Chase. This cant be happening to you. But then, how do you explain all the blood? How do you explain how you got here in the first place? There had to have been signs, had to have been some clues it was coming. Did you miss them, or ignore them? Maybe if you can figure out where it all went wrong, you can still make it right. Or is it already too late? Think fast, Kyle. Times running out. How did this happen? You is the riveting story of fifteenyearold Kyle and the small choices he does and doesnt make that lead to his own destruction. In his stunning youngadult debut, Charles Benoit mixes riveting tension with an insightfuland unsettlingportrait of an ordinary teen in a tale that is taut, powerful, and shattering.

Pick it up and you wont put it down! Michael Grant, New York Times bestselling author of Gone I sat down to start this bookand didnt get up until Id finished it, a riveting three hours later.
