Twisted by Laurie Halse Anderson is a novel directed towards the teenage audience. It is the story of former geek Tyler Miller, after vandalizing school property and a summer of community service. Tyler struggles with youthful rebellion, lustful temptation, and just about every other problem associated with adolescence. But it seems the real dilemma comes from his inner demons, as he wonders if he is fit to live. In the end he does survive, but still has a long journey ahead of him.
