Forgot the Doors - Hardcover

by K. F. Tevis (Author)

Lucas planned to spend the new school year unseen-quiet, careful, and safely out of the way. Selective mutism had taught him that silence could be a shield. But life on the sidelines isn't as easy as it looks. Friends fade when you can't find the words, especially when you're no longer in their classes.

Then, without warning, connection finds him anyway-in unexpected places, with unexpected people. And Lucas begins to learn that staying silent doesn't always keep you safe... and stepping through the metaphorical doors he's always avoided might change everything.

Forgot the Doors is perfect for readers who love the emotional honesty of The Perks of Being a Wallflower and the raw camaraderie of The Outsiders.

Content Note: This novel contains themes of social anxiety, selective mutism, emotional isolation, friendship conflict, bullying, and mental health struggles. Some scenes may distress readers sensitive to discussions of anxiety, loneliness, or peer rejection.
