About Some Species of Outsider-ness by Angela Grey
Piper Quesenberry has always known how to survive: keep your head down, keep people out, and never let anyone see the cracks. Slater Hartmann knows what it’s like to be on the outside too as he’s fighting a body that won’t cooperate and a world that stopped making sense after his life was turned upside down.
In a town where everyone knows your name, and your secrets, Piper and Slater aren’t supposed to be friends. But when they stumble upon something dark and dangerous happening behind the neon lights of Whispering Hills Casino, they realize they’ll have to trust each other to figure out the truth and make it out alive.
As they navigate whispered rumors, cruel classmates, and the weight of their own battles: Piper’s bipolar disorder and Slater’s fight to recover from Guillain-Barré Syndrome, they find something neither of them expected: someone who sees them for who they are.
Heartbreaking and hopeful, Some Species of Outsider-ness is a story about two broken teens finding strength in each other, standing up when it matters most, and learning that sometimes, being an outsider means you’re the only one brave enough to face the truth.
