I'M THE SINNER-DEAD POETS SOCIETY-CHARLIE DALTON

Theodora Perry was never meant to attend Welton Academy. Her father pulled strings to make it happen - the only girl among hundreds of boys - believing strict rules and order would "shape her future." But Theodora doesn't care for rules. She'd rather lose herself in sketches and quiet corners than in conformity.

Still, she isn't entirely invisible. Not to Charlie Dalton, who finds himself drawn to the girl who speaks little but feels deeply. To him, she's a mystery - soft-spoken, stubborn, and somehow braver than anyone else in the room.

But when tragedy strikes and Neil's laughter - her brother's light - disappears from the halls forever, Theodora's world collapses. Grief pulls her under, and for a while, she stops speaking altogether. Yet in the quiet, Charlie stays. Not to fix her, but to remind her that she's still here - and that sometimes, even after the deepest loss, life can begin again.
