Publisher's Synopsis
"i had the nightmare again. the one where i can feel the weight, smell the perfume, feel the cold porcelain..."
Elliot Finch is a quiet boy. He loves the beach and pancakes at the local diner and drawing in his journal. A journal that housed his most private, most intimate thoughts and feelings. A journal that was never meant to be seen by anyone other than himself. But someone did see it, and it ruined his life. Everything in Elliot's life is now marked as "before" or "after" The Party, and he vowed to never put his thoughts down on paper again, that way no one can use them against him. But when Ms. Sue, the high school guidance counselor, tells him to journaling might help him process his feelings, he begins writing again. Slowly, the journal entries peel back the layers, revealing what happened to him the night of The Party, and maybe, maybe help him move on.
