Description
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.
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.
About the Author
J
enni Howell is an American dark academia and thriller author whose books feature characters that pluck themselves out of their pages and into your mind, eerie mysteries, and swoon-worthy romances that are almost never a good idea. Fans of The Raven Cycle and Atlas Six will find themselves at home in her words.
Her debut, Boys With Sharp Teeth, combines a gothic boarding school thriller with lush character work and a pulse-racing toxic romance…or two. Boys comes out in Winter 2025 from Macmillan’s Roaring Brook Press with a second untitled novel to follow in 2026.
Before she was an author, Jenni dabbled in language study, archaeology, playacting Attila the Hun for captive but still feral sixth graders whoop wait ahem teaching middle and high school, and casual espionage. Now, she runs rampant with her own crew of homeschooled minions and scribbles for you.
