“Patrick Ness is an insanely beautiful writer.”--John Green We are thrilled to bring distinguished, award-winning author Patrick Ness to HarperCollins with this book! THE REST OF US JUST LIVE HERE is a highly imaginative novel that combines realistic contemporary fiction with a story in which strange events from a typical YA novel unfold (think “Chosen” kids battling vampires & zombies). Patrick Ness brilliantly weaves together two stories-one about four friends about to graduate from high school and the other about “Chosen” kids battling forces of evil-until they mesh into one stunning novel about friendship, family, and belonging.
