Book Overview

A rash of teen suicides haunts a teen with a murky history in this Printz Honor-winning novel. Will was destined to be a pilot, to skim above surfaces. So why is he in wood shop class? He doesn't know--or maybe he just doesn't want to admit the truth. When local teens begin committing suicide, their deaths all have one thing in common: beautifully carved wooden tributes that appear just after or before their bodies are found. Will's afraid he knows who's responsible. And lurking just behind that knowledge is another secret, so explosive that he might not be able to face it and live...

Freewill

By Thriftbooks.com User, October 17, 2002

confusing like cap'n jazz

By Thriftbooks.com User, November 17, 2001

This book is confusing. You may shake your head more than once throughout as you wonder what you may have missed. But, unlike the only other review that is currently posted, I intend to say positive things about the book.1. Will's descriptions of what it feels like to be an outcast are wonderful. I speak to you as someone who was formerly known as invisiblegirl, so I know what Will was saying. And the way he said it, it...
