Textul de pe ultima copertă
At
seventeen,
Lane
finds
himself
at
Latham
House,
a
sanatorium
for
teens
suffering
from
an
incurable
strain
of
tuberculosis.
Part
hospital
and
part
boarding
school,
Latham
is
a
place
of
endless
rules
and
confusing
rituals,
where
it's
easier
to
fail
breakfast
than
it
is
to
flunk
French.
There Lane encounters a girl he knew years ago. Instead of the shy loner he remembers, Sadie has transformed. At Latham, she is sarcastic, fearless, and utterly compelling. Her friends, a group of eccentric troublemakers, fascinate Lane, who has never stepped out of bounds his whole life. And as he gradually becomes one of them, Sadie shows him their secrets: how to steal internet, how to sneak into town, and how to disable the med sensors they must wear at all times.
But there are consequences to having secrets, particularly at Latham House. And as Lane and Sadie begin to fall in love and their group begins to fall sicker, their insular world threatens to come crashing down.
Told from alternating points of view, Extraordinary Means is a darkly funny story about doomed friendships, first love, and the rare miracle of second chances.

Recenzii

subtlety,

The
Fault
in
Our
Stars.”
