In the opening of Swati Avasthi's debut novel, SPLIT, main character Jace Witherspoon finds himself in quite the predicament. He's just traveled over a thousand miles with nothing but three bucks in his pocket, a busted-up face, and the hope that the brother he hasn't seen in five years will take him in. You see, Jace is running away from home; specifically, after throwing a few punches of his own, he's running from the father who's abused him his entire life. Now all he wants to do is start over, but the big question is... how?
SPLIT hits bookstore and library shelves today and Swati will be joining us here on the Teenreads blog tomorrow, but in the meantime, check out the book trailer for SPLIT below, and be sure to let us know what you think!
