A little bit of horror, and not to mention the humor in insanity!
New School, New Friends, New Attitude, New... Look?
March 2, 2011, Isaac Solice starts a new school, more than 3/4 through the year. At 16, he's known for his parties, his rudely outgoing ways, and just not caring about anything. At all. But not for long. Things take a turn for the worse, and poor Isaac finds himself lost and closer to the edge than ever. And yes, I do mean closER.
Is this all in his head? Is it really true? Maybe you should read and find out.
And boy, does he live up to his name.
Isaac= He who laughs... a lot
