YA
On the brink of his senior year, Lane contracts total-drug-resistant tuberculosis and is "forcibly evicted" from his college-prep-focused life. Quarantined at Latham House, a boarding-school-turned-sanatorium, Lane meets Sadie, who lives--somewhat recklessly--for the present. Lane and Sadie narrate with distinct but equally seductive voices, tempting readers to share their devastating, constantly threatened illusion of teenage invulnerability.
