alone and lonely...

"Solitary" by Travis Thrasher was a free kindle download so I thought I would give it a try.  It is about a boy,  Chris, age 16, who has moved to the town of Solitary with his mom.  He is in a new school where all he can focus on is Jocelyn, the most beautiful girl in the school.  Jocelyn wants nothing to do with Chris, keeps pushing him away, but the more she pushes, the more they are drawn together.

Chris is being bullied, his mom is a raging alcoholic and Jocelyn has many secrets that scare Chris more than the bullies and his mom ever do.  And all Chris wants to do is protect Jocelyn and believe in the connection they share.
