A new edition of Michael L. Printz Award winner A.S. King's stunning portrait of a life lived on reality TV.

Reality Boy

"A.S. King is one of the best Y.A. writers working today." - New York Times Book Review

Gerald Faust knows exactly when he started feeling angry – the day his mother invited a reality television crew into his five-year-old life. Twelve years later, he's still haunted by his rage-filled youth, which the entire world got to watch from every imaginable angle. His anger issues have resulted in violent outbursts, zero friends, and clueless adults dumping him in the special education room at school.

Nothing is ever going to change. No one cares that he's tried to learn to control himself, and the girl he likes has no idea who he really is. Everyone's just waiting for him to snap...and he's starting to feel dangerously close to doing just that.
