Bret is a 16-year-old misfit theatre geek. His character is a multidimensional treatment of a teen non-conformist, which although aggressive at times, is hard to condemn when shown his circumstances. Bret is an independent thinker in a world where fitting in is what's valued. The setting, both geographic and psychological (it's set in the town where I grew up) is drawn really well.
Strong writing that rings true with authentic teen voices. It's a complex story that isn't cliche--a rarity in young adult writing.
