Protect him. Lie for him. Kill for him.High school senior Andrew Perrault finds refuge in the twisted fairytales that he writes for the only person who can ground him to reality--Thomas Rye, the boy with perpetually ink-stained hands and hair like autumn leaves. And with his twin sister, Dove, inexplicably keeping him at a cold distance upon their return to Wickwood Academy, Andrew finds himself leaning on his friend even more. But something strange is going on with Thomas. His abusive parents have mysteriously vanished, and he arrives at school with blood on his sleeve. Thomas wont say a word about it, and shuts down whenever Andrew tries to ask him questions. Stranger still, Thomas is haunted by something, and he seems to have lost interest in his artwork--whimsically macabre sketches of the monsters from Andrews wicked stories. Desperate to figure out whats wrong with his friend, Andrew follows Thomas into the off-limits forest one night and catches him fighting a nightmarish monster--Thomass drawings have come to life and are killing anyone close to him. To make sure no one else dies, the boys battle the monsters every night. But as their obsession with each other grows stronger, so do the monsters, and Andrew begins to fear that the only way to stop the creatures might be to destroy their creator...

Review Praise for Dont Let the Forest In: "Drews paints a gruesome narrative with visceral descriptions of monsters and the violence they enact, while with equal vigor, encapsulating the trauma of loss, disordered eating, bullying, and anxiety, all of which is counterbalanced by a gentle touch addressing asexual identity. ... Prepare for the emotional roller coaster of plot twists, unreliable narration, and a divisive conclusion. Sure to please those interested in modern horror mixed with a touch of fairy tale." --Booklist, starred review "Compulsively readable. Dont Let the Forest In lures you into a lush world full of terrifying monsters and codependent boys trying to survive their obsessive art--and each other." --Trang Thanh Tran, New York Times-bestselling author of She Is a Haunting"CG Drews has crafted a beautiful, horrific novel out of underbrush and ink stains and blood. Perfect for any reader who has looked into the sharp mouths of disturbing fairy tales and found themself entirely at home." --Andrew Joseph White, New York Times-bestselling author of The Spirit Bares Its Teeth and Hell Followed With Us "A bloodied tale of toxic romance and botanical horror, this book will ensnare you like the tendrils of a haunted forest." --Lyndall Clipstone, author of Lakesedge and Unholy Terrors "Genuinely creepy ... Lush, angsty, queer horror." --Kirkus Reviews "With a lingering terror that will lurk well after you finish, this psychological horror is packed with monsters of fairytale, folklore and so much more. Good luck not getting hooked (and haunted)." --B&N Reads Details ISBN1250895669 Year 2024 ISBN-13 9781250895660 Format Hardcover Publication Date 2024-10-29 Audience Teenage / Young adult Publisher St Martins Press Imprint St Martins Press Place of Publication New York Country of Publication United States US Release Date 2024-10-29 Pages 336 DEWEY FIC ISBN-10 1250895669 Author Cg Drews Audience Age 13-17 Illustrations Illustrations We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
