The New Boy by Paula Rawsthorne

Description

When new boy Jack starts at Zoe’s school, something about him makes her nervous – he’s so perfect, he can hardly be real. But Zoe is soon swept up in how charming, popular and handsome he is. Soon, they’re dating and he’s everything she dreamed he might be – kind, attentive, full of romantic gestures. Eventually, though, the cracks start to show and Zoe wonders whether she was right all along. Is Jack too good to be true? 

This is a psychological thriller exploring in a totally unique way the facades people create for themselves and how social media and our disregard for privacy can have a devastating impact on our lives. A gripping read aimed at teenagers. 384pp
