Book Overview

The New York Times bestselling author of Challenger Deep, Neal Shusterman, delivers a suspenseful, eloquent, and thrilling novel that you won't be able to stop thinking about after you've put it down.

Tennyson is not surprised, really, when his family begins to fall apart, or when his twin sister, Bront , starts dating the misunderstood bully, Brewster (or The Bruiser, as the entire high school calls him). Tennyson is determined to get to the bottom of The Bruiser's reputation, even if it means gearing up for a fight. Bront , on the other hand, thinks there's something special underneath that tough exterior. And she's right...but neither she nor Tennyson is prepared for the truth of what lies below the surface.

Told through Tennyson, Bront , and Bruiser's points of view, this dark, twisting novel explores friendship, family, and the sacrifices we make for the people we love.

All the Feels and Thought Provoking.

This book is excellently written and it is easy to become invested in the story. It has multiple narrators, each has their own voice, and Neal Shusterman makes it clear who is narrating. Bruiser deals with tough subject matter in ways that can be helpful to younger and older teens. It left me thinking deeply about lessons the characters learned for days. But reading it doesn't feel like you're being spoon fed instructions, it feels epic, romantic, and dangerous. It gave me all the feels and Shusterman is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors.
