YA
Cool and mechanical overachiever Waverly is high school royalty who hides the fact that she hardly sleeps. In a dreamlike state, she's projected into the acid trip of stoner Marshall, and a romantic relationship develops that creates cracks in Waverly's seemingly immutable foundation. Moody and electric, Yovanoff's writing evokes a feeling of hallucinatory sleeplessness while building solid, sympathetic characters.
