Publisher's summary

A startling, wonderful novel about the true meaning of being an alien in an equally alien world.

"We are specks. Pieces of dust in this universe. Big nothings. I know what I am."

Mal lives on the fringes of high school. Angry. Misunderstood. Yet loving the world - or, at least, an idea of the world. Then he meets Hooper. Who says he's from another planet. And may be going home very soon.

Beautiful

A strange book, yet beautiful in a way not everyone will understand. Talking about the almost familiar feeling of wanting to be far, far away in a place where you can start new and be free.

What is this doing in the kids section

I’m totally upset I played this for my 10 and 5 year old boys. My oldest stopped it when it got to a part talking about comparing dicks in the shower. Wtf audible.
