Kees is a dyslexic elementary schooler who really struggles with reading and writing and thinks school is a nightmare. His self-esteem is low, and he often feels stupid. Except when he and his best friend, Pete, dream up pranks, which they often pull off with members of their secret friends group. After another prank (a pretty good one), the principal has it and gives Kees and Pete a rather unusual punishment. They earn the dreadful task of writing a two-page essay about what they find to be the hardest thing they have ever done. In the painful writing process, Kees discovers there are particular times he has found difficult or which have made him feel sad, but he also figures out what he is good at and that he isn't stupid, after all. Dyslexia gives him superpowers.

From a New York Times bestselling author, a young boy is haunted by a voice in his head in this "epic horror" novel, perfect for fans of Stephen King (Dan Chaon, author of Ill Will). Single mother Kate Reese is on the run. Determined to improve life for her and her seven year-old son, Christopher, she flees an abusive relationship in the middle of the night. At first, the tight-knit community of Mill Grove, Pennsylvania seems like the perfect place to finally settle down. Then Christopher vanishes. Days later, he emerges from the woods at the edge of town, unharmed but not unchanged. He returns with a voice in his head only he can hear, with a mission only he can complete: Build a treehouse in the woods by Christmas, or his mother and everyone in the town will never be the same again. Twenty years ago, Stephen Chbosky's The Perks of Being a Wallflower made readers everywhere feel infinite. Now, Chbosky has returned with an epic work of literary horror, years in the making, whose grand scale and rich emotion redefine the genre. Read it with the lights on. One of The Year's Best Books (People, EW, Lithub, Vox, Washington Post, and more)
