Stay (Reprint)

Description: From a beloved National Book Award finalist. Clara's relationship with Christian is intense from the start, and like nothing she's ever experienced before.

Review Quotes: "Taking an honest look at the dangers of obsession and stalking, Caletti writes a beautiful story that somehow remains hopeful even when the plot takes a sinister twist. Through the story, all characters come to life and become understandable, if not likable. Recommend this book to every teen and parent. This is a danger often overlooked until it is too late because of its subtlety, and the guilt and shame involved."--VOYA
