Can a text message destroy your life?
Carver Briggs never thought a simple text would cause a fatal crash, killing his three best friends, Mars, Eli, and Blake. Now Carver can’t stop blaming himself for the accident and even worse, there could be a criminal investigation into the deaths.
Then Blake’s grandmother asks Carver to remember her grandson with a ‘goodbye day’ together. Carver has his misgivings, but he starts to help the families of his lost friends grieve with their own memorial days, along with Eli’s bereaved girlfriend Jesmyn. But not everyone is willing to forgive. Carver’s own despair and guilt threatens to pull him under into panic and anxiety as he faces punishment for his terrible mistake. Can the goodbye days really help?
Why I’m Waiting
As many of you know, The Serpent King, Zentner’s debut book is one of my favorite reads of 2016. Because of this, I am anticipating his sophomore release even more!
P.S. Jeff Zentner is the author of The Serpent King.

The Serpent King was good, but not my favorite, so not sure if I’ll read any more by this author, but he is someone I’ll keep buying probably for the students in my library to read. Hope you can get your hands on this soon.
