Party


Book Description

"I’m the girl nobody knows until she commits suicide. Then suddenly everyone had a class with her." Tonight's the night. Everyone will be there. Will you? Graduation in Santa Barbara, a house near the beach, and no parents! That can mean only one thing: PARTY! But not everyone's in a partying mood. Beckett is only going to confirm she is invisible after having spent two years caring for her mother; Morrigan seeks revenge on her ex- for having the gall to NOT sleep with her; Azize is trying to make a friend -- any friend; and Anthony's ready to pop off on anyone who mentions his maimed, combat-veteran brother. As the night quickly spirals out of control, eleven unique characters -- all of whom are familiar to anyone who's been a high school student -- crash, collide, and recombine in ways none of them saw coming when a brutal act of xenophobic violence brings the party to a halt. Graduation is a time of change. But after tonight, no one will ever be the same.
