Delicate Monsters: A Novel | Stephanie Kuehn
7 posts | 6 read | 2 to read
When nearly killing a classmate gets seventeen-year-old Sadie Su kicked out of her third boarding school in four years, she returns to her family's California vineyard estate. Here, she's meant to stay out of trouble. Here, she's meant to do a lot of things. But it's hard. She's bored. And when Sadie's bored, the only thing she likes is trouble. Emerson Tate's a poor boy living in a rich town, with his widowed mother and strange, haunted little brother. All he wants his senior year is to play basketball and make something happen with the girl of his dreams. That's why Emerson's not happy Sadie's back. An old childhood friend, she knows his worst secrets. The things he longs to forget. The things she won't ever let him. Haunted is a good word for fifteen-year-old Miles Tate. Miles can see the future, after all. And he knows his vision of tragic violence at his school will come true, because his visions always do. That's what he tells the new girl in town. The one who listens to him. The one who recognizes the darkness in his past. But can Miles stop the violence? Or has the future already been written? Maybe tragedy is his destiny. Maybe it's all of theirs. Delicate Monsters is Stephanie Kuehn at her finest.

WTF did I just read. So strange and obscure. Very dark thoughts and characters, and nothing was really solved. I kept waiting for something to happen, then it all happened at once and then it just ended! Anyone else read this before? I'd love to hear thoughts.

Reading while feeling the breeze through the open windows and the mist of the rain.

jessberk13 This looks suspiciously like a corner near where I used to work. Any chance you're in NYC? 8y
Kaylamburson @Jessica, yes I am in NYC! So weird I didn't get the notification for this before, but yeah I was on Broadway near the Stardust Diner 8y

Just started this one. Not sure how I feel about it yet...

Soubhiville Great cover! I hope what's inside lives up to it. 8y
jpmcwisemorgan I'm intrigued. I'm waiting to hear how it is! 8y
Kaylamburson @Soubhiville, I know, I absolutely adore the cover. I'll def let you and @jpmcwisemorgan know what I think as I get further into it! It's less than 250 pgs, so seems like a quick read! 8y

Not at all what I expected. The book is about facing your demons and left some things hanging and to your interpretation. Just be prepared for an unexpected/sad/weird journey.
