Summary
Walking with his head down and his hood up, Isaac Lahey spent most of his time alone, blending into the shadows, speaking only when spoken to. It was a habit drilled into him by his father, a way of surviving. He kept his pain hidden, his bruises covered, and his emotions locked away from the world.
Only one person ever truly saw him—the only one who had bothered to talk to him back in first grade. His childhood best friend. His Claire-Bear.
BHHS's ray of sunshine, Claire McCall, had spent the past nine years secretly nursing a crush on her best friend. She knew everything about him—his dreams, his favorite color, the quiet way he showed he cared. Most of all, she knew the truth behind his silence and the bruises he never explained.
But everything changed with one decision. One bite.
Now, they're on opposite sides of a war neither of them chose, torn apart by secrets, instincts, and something darker—something far more dangerous than either of them could have imagined. A creature that doesn't care about love, loyalty, or friendship.
Will their once-unbreakable bond break, or will it blossom into something more?

But it wasn’t a monster that came out of the trees. It was a person. A boy.
Mike froze.
Then he was spotted, and the boy stopped in his tracks; with skillful movements, he quickly slung the rifle off his shoulder and pointed it at Mike’s chest. Mike raised his hands while trying to keep most of his weight on his left leg.
“Whoa. Hey,” Mike said, his eyes wide as he stared at the tip of the rifle. “Just hold on. I’m not—I’m not going to hurt you.”

Summary
“Oh, come on,” Will says, struggling to keep his voice neutral in a different way. His mouth is dry, and he hates Mike for it even more. “Is this what it’s going to be like this summer?”
Mike looks back at him, considering, lips pursed in an effort to shut down the smirk that Will knows is fighting to break free. Will doesn’t dare to let his gaze catch there, focusing instead on holding Mike’s stare, because this, too, is a game.
Five years into a rivalry with bittersweet origins, the only thing Mike and Will want is to beat each other at this summer’s camp counselor competition. But being back at camp is dredging up old memories, and as Mike and Will lose momentum and gain something else entirely, it becomes increasingly clear that one summer can change everything.

Summary
“I keep imagining telling you all of this in person and then immediately shoving a gun down my throat and killing myself. Because then you’d look at me differently. Or worse— you wouldn’t. You’d look at me exactly the same, and I wouldn’t know what to do with that.”
His voice cracks slightly, but he keeps going.
“I don’t want you to feel like I’m breaking in front of you.”
“But I think I already am. I think I already did. I think you looked away. I think you still care. I think you’re scared. I think I love you. No. I Know I love you. I’m as sure of it as Dustin is about wavefunctions collapsing the moment you try to define them too precisely.”
“Will, I always wonder… if we too, would collapse if one of us tries to define what we are too precisely.”
OR
In which Mike and Will get high, make terrible decisions, and avoid one very obvious conversation for an impressive amount of time.
