Boys of the Beast

THE ROUTE.
1,700 miles from Portland, Oregon, to Albuquerque, New Mexico.
THE BEAST.
Grandma Lupe’s 1988 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe.
THE BOYS.
Three strangers who also happen to be cousins:
Matt. Evangelical Christian. Earnest. Film nerd. Carrying a dream to make movies—despite the future his father has planned for him.
Ethan. Jewish. Gay. Sci-fi nerd. Carrying a phone that contains his entire relationship with Levi—unless they finally get to meet IRL on this trip.
Oscar. Stoner. Smartass. Too cool to be a nerd. Carrying a letter that haunts him—no matter how hard he tries to escape it.
THE END …
… just might be a new beginning.
This funny, timely novel in three voices marks the terrific YA debut of Monica Zepeda.
