Description
"Wild, weird, hilarious, heartfelt, imaginative, and inventive.
The spirit of Kurt Vonnegut is alive and well in its pages." -Jeff Zentner, author of The Serpent King "A satisfying mix of mild adolescent angst and creature feature comedy." -BCCB (starred review) "Frighteningly fun." -Booklist (starred review)From the author of Cure for the Common Universe comes a monster-movie-like novel that bravely challenges perceived notions of beauty, identity, and modern voyeurism. Phoebe Lane is a lightning rod for monsters. She and her mom are forced to flee flesh-eating plants, blobs from outer space, and radioactive ants.
They survive thanks to Phoebe's dad-an invisible titan, whose giant eyes warn them where the next monster attack will take place. All Phoebe wants is to stop running from motel to motel and start living a monster-free life in New York or Paris.
But when her mom mysteriously vanishes, Phoebe is left to fend for herself in small-town Pennybrooke. That's when Phoebe starts to transform... Christian McKay Heidicker returns with a book unlike any other, challenging perceived notions of beauty, identity, and what it means to be a monster.
