Description
This is an Alternate Cover edition for ASIN B00ZNE17D2Dill has had to wrestle with vipers his whole lifeâat home, as the only son of a Pentecostal minister who urges him to handle poisonous rattlesnakes, and at school, where he faces down bullies who target him for his fatherâs extreme faith and very public fall from grace.The only antidote to all this venom is his friendship with fellow outcasts Travis and Lydia. But as they are starting their senior year, Dill feels the coils of his future tightening around him. The end of high school will lead to new beginnings for Lydia, whose edgy fashion blog is her ticket out of their rural Tennessee town. And Travis is happy wherever he is thanks to his obsession with the epic book series Bloodfall and the fangirl who may be turning his harsh reality into real-life fantasy. Dillâs only escapes are his music and his secret feelings for Lydiaâneither of which he is brave enough to share. Graduation feels more like an ending to Dill than a beginning. But even before then, he must cope with another endingâone that will rock his life to the core.Debut novelist Jeff Zentner provides an unblinking and at times comic view of the hard realities of growing up in the Bible Belt, and an intimate look at the struggles to find oneâs true self in the wreckage of the past.
