Book overview
Seventeen-year-old Erik Frye wakes up in a psychiatric hospital for juveniles. He has no memory of the events leading up to his hospitalization or the details surrounding the mysterious death of his classmate, who was also his long-time bully. He becomes the prime suspect in a homicide investigation after details recovered from his notebook, along with forensic evidence, place him at the scene of the crime. It is with the help of his dynamic therapist, a committed detective, and a popular true crime podcast that Erik unravels the mystery of who he really is, what exactly happened, and why he's in The Looking Glass Rehabilitation Center for Boys. The Notebook Boy is a gripping and darkly tender psychological mystery that masterfully blends humor, trauma, and self-discovery into a story about memory, courage, and the fight for redemption.
