The Rest of Us Just Live Here

Imagine a group of kids living their ordinary lives in a world where something extraordinary is happening. Something that includes immortals, gods, and zombie deers! Mikey and his friends aren't the "chosen ones," the kids who are fighting off vampires and monsters. He's just a high-school senior with OCD who is trying to graduate and work up the courage to ask his crush out. Ness's thought-provoking tale of real issues and true teen thinking set amidst a supernatural world will show you what true friendship is like. Cool bonus: the book cover glows in the dark!
