- Book Synopsis
- After a first episode of psychosis lands him a stay in a psychiatric hospital, all sixteen-year-old Kai Lum wants to do is reclaim his life. But now that heâ s back home, everything is different. He has medications to take, his dad is always hovering, and everyone at school keeps staring at him. Kaiâ s determined not to let any of that distract him from proving he can make it as a chef, though. He has his culinary arts program to focus on, and he wonâ t let his diagnosis change his plans. But finding his new normal is harder than Kai expects. His medications have side effects that he doesnâ t know how to control. His dad pushes him to accept more clinical help, even though Kaiâ s not sure he wantsâ or needsâ it. And Kaiâ s best friends are ghosting him. On top of all of that, Kai isnâ t sure if the voices heâ s hearing are real or in his head. Kaiâ s life begins to spin out of control as he struggles to know who he can trust. With his health and dreams on the line, he has to decide whether heâ s willing to accept help in order to manage his newly diagnosed mental illness. Characterized by exciting, fast-paced plots and themes that are relevant for high school students, Horizonâ s Hi-Lo books are both engaging and easy to read. Short chapters, simple sentence structures, and an accessible format make these books perfect for teen reluctant readers. Horizon books are written at a 2nd- to 3rd-grade reading level with an interest level of ages 14 and up.
