Some Species of Outsider-ness by Angela Grey

About Featured Book: 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.

When Mom calls Dad a spineless jellyfish for not standing up to his obnoxious brother, Willis, Dad grounds her for a week. Reyia, 13, Reymund, 17, and Rodney, 16, side with Dad. Until they realize they’ll be fending for themselves for the whole week—cooking, cleaning, laundry? Oh, my

Thing is, they expected her to apologize within the day if not the hour—which is what they would’ve done in her position.

Yes, and Mom’s grounded her car, truck, and keys with her. Which means, not only does Reymund not have wheels for his date with beautiful, but fickle, Delora, Reyia, Rodney, and little Ryleigh have to find a way to get to the stables after school to practice for the horse show Saturday. Likely, they’ll have no way of getting to the horse show either, for Dad works most weekends and has no real interest in their horsey endeavors.

And way before Saturday, Reyia is fed up with trying to manage household chores along with the rest of her life!

How long will Mom hold out before she tires of solitary confinement? Doesn’t she care that Dad’s sleeping in his basement mancave?

Yes, Reyia has a nagging worry that her family is about to face a major break up . . .

Mom, please . . . just apologize!

With its lighthearted mix of humor, heart, and family chaos, The Disciplining of Mom is perfect for readers who love coming-of-age tales and heartfelt family dramas.
