'"We're all screwed up." He looked back into their large, hollow eyes, wanting nothing more than to hug them and tell them that everything would be okay—but that wouldn't help right now, not that anything really could. "But what he did- no, does to you? That'd screw anyone up, more than this world alone ever could."'
Enemies. Lovers. Tormentors. Friends. High school is bittersweet, a wild ride through crucial years in many people's lives, and Jey is finding that out for themself the hard way. Cruelty exists in many forms, yet no one is entirely innocent—morals are stretched in pursuit of love, or profit, by teens who are just trying to get through their education unscathed. All the while, underlying issues are beginning to grow, bottling up inside young minds and just waiting for an explosion. Guilt, love and betrayal, caused by high school students' actions and the sometimes devastating consequences, are all explored in this gritty novella.
