About this listen
We Were Liars meets The Raven Boys in this mind-bending YA debut about dark revenge, twisted desire, and the sinister secrets lurking behind the walls of an elite boarding school.
"A darkly delicious spiral where each page makes you crave more."―CG Drews, author of Don't Let The Forest In
"A stunningly lush, utterly compelling, darkly beautiful debut!"―Ginny Myers Sain, New York Times bestselling author of Dark and Shallow Lies
Seventeen-year-old Marin James has spent her entire life living in the shadow of the exclusive Huntsworth Academy. And when her cousin’s dead body is found in a creek on school property, Marin knows exactly who’s to blame: Adrian Hargraves and Henry Wu, the enigmatic yet dangerously alluring leaders of the school's social elite.
Swapping her ripped jeans for a crisp prep school skirt, Marin infiltrates Huntsworth to seek justice. But her quest is quickly muddied by a confusing attraction to her new life, and to the two dysfunctional and depraved boys who somehow understand her better than anyone ever has.
When Marin uncovers an otherworldly secret the boys are hiding within Huntsworth's ivied gates, the lines between right and wrong, love and hate, and nightmare and reality begin to crumble—and nothing is as it seems.
Welcome to Huntsworth Academy.
A Macmillan Audio production from Roaring Brook Press.

"Boys With Sharp Teeth is the kind of book that whispers terrible secrets in your ear late at night. With each page turn, you'll find yourself struggling to catch your breath as grief, revenge, and obsession intertwine like twisting ivy. This is a stunningly lush, utterly compelling, darkly beautiful debut!"—Ginny Myers Sain, New York Times bestselling author of DARK AND SHALLOW LIES
“In this beautifully crafted, twisted love story, Howell explores what happens when love doesn’t make you better, but in fact makes you worse. These complicated characters have tangled relationships and thorny secrets that make for a truly stunning tale."—Kamilah Cole, indie bestselling author of SO LET THEM BURN
"Jenni Howell is a talent to watch, and Boys With Sharp Teeth proves it. If you're looking for a devious dark academia book with beautiful prose and shocking twists, you've found it."—Jesse Q. Sutanto, USA Today bestselling author of Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers

Story
Nick Carraway―paper soldier and novelist―has found a life and a living watching the mad magical spectacle of New York high society in the late thirties. He's good at watching, and he's even better at pretending: pretending to be straight, pretending to be human, pretending he's forgotten the events of that summer in 1922. On the eve of the second World War, however, Nick learns that someone's been watching him pretend and that memory goes both ways. When he sees a familiar face at a club one night, it quickly becomes clear that dead or not, damned or not, Jay Gatsby isn't done with him.

Linda is doing her best to lead a life that would appear normal to the casual observer. Weekdays, she earns $20 an hour moderating comments for a video-sharing platform, then rides the bus home to the windowless garage she rents on the outskirts of San Francisco. But on the last Friday of each month, she indulges her true passion, taking BART to SFO for a round-trip flight to a regional hub. The destination is irrelevant, because each trip means a new date with a handsome stranger—a stranger with intelligent windscreens, sleek fuselages, and powerful engines.
