Andrew Simonet's Wilder is a debut YA novel about passion, anger, secrets, and what happens when two teens from different worlds meet in in-school suspension.
I met Melissa in the rubber room, a.k.a. in-school suspension. And that's not her real name.
She had secrets, I had enemies.
"People are either useful or dangerous," she said. "One or the other."
"Which one am I?" I said.
"You're both."
Meili was right. (That's her real name.)
You can solve a lot of problems if you don't mind getting hurt.
Jason Wilder is in permanent in-school suspension for fighting. Meili Wen gets there by breaking a girl's finger. Jason and Meili don't just connect; they collide. Two people who would never cross paths--outsiders from radically different backgrounds--form an exhilarating, unpredictable bond. When circumstances push, they push back. There's no plan. And there's no stopping.
I am so crap. How can you stand being with me? Don't answer that or I will crash this thing with both of us on it, swear to god, are you ready?"
Yes. No. Didn't matter.
I reached both arms around Meili's waist as we zoomed down the hill.
