Volo, the main character of the titular story, stands in front of a window, the light of a full moon revealing their bones.

“So. Mr. Pacey, I’m here to offer you an opportunity. I can let you continue on the…trajectory you’re currently on, and who knows? Maybe you manage to grab the window frame and stop your fall, though it would be quite impressive for a man as drunk as you. So. You could keep going with your life, however short that may be, or you can join me and become the thing that lurks in the dark, if you so desire. You’ll have access to places you could never imagine."

This would be easier with Marco's original corpse, but the dead are easy to come by. Harder to shape, yes, but easy enough to find. Flesh meets flesh and the needle joins them together, stitch by agonizing stitch. The face is a mosaic of the closest approximations of Marco, as the adjustments are easier that way.

my newest novel, YOU’RE NO BETTER—a teen thriller about messy trans kids and serial killers—has an official summary! this book is a rough one, and it tackles a lot of ugliness, but I love it so much and can’t wait to share it 💕

A white and pink graphic reading “YOURE NO BETTER: Official summary,” with broken glass in the background.

Black text on a white background, reading:

“Bestselling author Andrew Joseph White returns with another horrific YA thriller: a profound portrait of a struggling teen trying to convince the world—and himself—that he’s better than the serial killer who raised him.

Morgan Slaughter, a seventeen-year-old trans boy with autism, put his serial killer father in prison years ago. Despite that, everyone thinks Morgan will grow up to be just like his dad: including his volatile mother, the documentary crew following their family, and maybe himself.

Desperately, Morgan latches onto his father’s final victim—the only one who was never identified—hoping that if he unravels the mystery, he’ll finally prove he’s better than the man who hurt him. But this puts Morgan in the crosshairs of classmate Felicity Keating, who knows the truth about Morgan’s childhood—that he wasn’t just a witness to his father’s brutality, he was an accomplice. And if he doesn’t let them help with his investigation? They’ll tell everyone.

Forced to confront his past, Morgan’s ugly but carefully controlled world unravels. The film crew is manipulative. His mother’s temper spirals into malice, then violence. And Morgan and Felicity may be more tightly intertwined than either of them can stomach…

You’re No Better is a gritty and unapologetic coming-of-age suspense about teens who grew up surrounded by cruelty and are clawing their way to adulthood the only way they know how.”
