"More than a stunning debut. It is the announcement of a bold new literary voice"
—Stephen Chbosky, author of The Perks of Being a Wallflower

I didnt know if you were my enemy or friend, but we had the same taste in music which is all that really matters to me. We both fell in love with the same girl and that’s where everything went bad. You knew her before me and even had the courtesy of sharing time with her. I was going to give you my skateboard before you passed, you told me about your skills but you didnt have a board!! We hung out one night at your house, in the garage. Bryce invited me over and i smoked with you guys and we talked about life. I wish you were still here even though your actions may have provoked some anger inside of me, you could make me happy just as easily! If things could be different they would be i guess.
