    Summary

    Mostly, he's just alone.

    He hasn't spoken to any of his old friends in - how long has it been, now? A year? Two?

    And he doesn't mind it. He settles easily into the silence, into the routine of every day life.

    Sometimes, though - sometimes, he's lonely.

    Summary

    The boy who worked the graveyard shift at Brazenhead Books was bird-thin, and pale, and kind of scowl-y. He was always reading enormous dry texts with titles like Tort Law and Alternatives and Intro to Comparative Constitutional Law. He drawled like Matthew McConaughey and the hair just above his right ear never lay flat.

    Ronan was probably in love.

    Summary

    At eighteen, each person chooses whether they will be an intellectual or a lover. Intellectuals are responsible for advancing society; it is illegal for them to enter into romantic relationships as it would distract from their purpose. Lovers are everyone else: they can be in romantic relationships, but are not trusted with high-level jobs.

    Isak is an intellectual with no desire to be a lover: he knows the dangers of romance and believes he is too smart for it anyway. Even is a lover who thinks the whole system is bullshit, and as it turns out, Isak's best friend is a bit of a revolutionary....

    Summary

    “feelings are just like the weather”

    jason isn't sure why he keeps on lying, isn't sure he can stop, anyway, as nico watches the tumbleweeds spin on and on and on, his sorry lips stained with red and tainted pulse below his skin.

    (in which jason craves difference and nico craves sin).
