Description

A sensitive, heartfelt #ownvoices YA love story about finding inner strength, perfect for fans of Nicola Yoon and All The Bright Places. From the outside, Everest has it all, but there's only one girl who can see him for who he truly is... and it changes his life forever. High school senior Everest is the most popular guy in school. On the surface, handsome, wealthy and captain of the football team, but inside, desperately unhappy. Depressed and suicidal, he tries to take his life. Beverly is the exact opposite. Quiet, shy, and hard-working, she'd rather spend her time in the library, distracting herself from her less-than-perfect home life. Everest returns to school, in more pain than ever. Discarded by his friends and girlfriend, he is totally isolated. But when Beverly and Everest meet unexpectedly in a dusty corner of the library, together they discover how just how rich life can be - how love, tenderness and acceptance can change their lives forever . . .

Author Bio

Sky Chase is a young author who grew up in the vibrant city of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. She's been telling stories since before she could read, but when she joined Wattpad, she found a safe place to create and a platform on which she could advocate for mental health. When Sky's not writing, she can be found counting the constellations from her window, scribbling song lyrics on napkins, and visiting her local animal shelter. Saving Everest is her first novel.
