THE VALLEY OF DRY BONES
NEIL LEE HALE CANNOT TOUCH ANYONE. Seven years after a stint in a psychiatric facility, Neil-former crime scene consultant, infamous for his unconventional talents-lives on the knife-edge of existence. Of society, of understanding, of sanity. There, his talents-a series of strange, suppressed psychic abilities-are silent, muffled, distant. But then the murders begin. Ritualistic. Brutal. An old friend's voice beckons him back to Ashford, Vermont, to a college plagued by death and secrecy, and a fragmented darkness Neil can glimpse with his mind-flashes of blood, sacrifice, hidden truths thrumming underneath the surface. In this twisted labyrinthine, Neil finds himself caught in a dangerous cat-and-mouse game with a mind as broken as his own. As the bodies pile up and his strange visions begin, Neil finds himself caught between predator and prey, villain and innocent, and will stop at nothing to discover the rot underneath the surface, even at the cost of his own sanity. (OR; in which one man's obsession leads him like a lamb is led to slaughter.)

The Opposite of Falling Apart
WATTPAD BOOKS EDITION There are imperfect moments in every life-but sometimes, there are perfect accidents . . . What's the point of pretending nothing has changed when everything has? It's the last summer before college, and Jonas Avery knows he should be excited. Instead, he hides out at home, avoiding his friends, his family, and everything that resembles his old life. Because nothing will be normal again-because of The Accident, when everything started falling apart. Brennan Davis knows she needs to stand up and face her anxiety-the deep, dark, debilitating dread that rules her everyday life. Because what stops her from going out into the world and just living is going to get a whole lot worse. She's leaving for college in the fall, where she'll be confronted with even more to worry about. To get back up sometimes you have to fall down, hard . . . When Jonas crashes into Brennan-in a harmless, albeit embarrassing fender bender-the two teens connect in ways they never expected. As friends, they help each other overcome their biggest falls and faults, and soon discover that while love can't fix everything, it's sometimes a place to start. Sensitive, wry, and unabashedly authentic, The Opposite of Falling Apart isn't about finding perfection in another person or fixing the things we think are broken. Instead, Micah Good has penned an enchantingly honest novel about accepting the very pieces of ourselves that make us unique, whole, and undeniably human.Complete
