(2) YA Mara Carlyle offers gruesomely funny commentary as an epidemic of spontaneous combustion sweeps her senior class. Mara's connections to best friend Tess, boyfriend Dylan, and their classmates are both strained and deepened as the senseless reality of losing any of them at any moment takes its toll. Bursting with heartache and gore, Mara's narration appeals directly to readers' senses of horror and humor.
