Publisher's Synopsis
Shut Up and Die depicts a tale of two teenage best friends. Our main girl, Sadie Rivers, is a shy, headstrong seventeen-year-old in her senior year of high school. She's madly in love with her best friend, Milo Dasch, who is a year younger than her and a junior. All throughout her life, Sadie has endured many traumatic events, from that of losing her father as a child to the harsh teasing from her fellow peers. Things, however, take an interesting turn one day when Sadie invites Milo over to her house to hang out. He is completely taken aback when he meets her mother, Jackie Rivers. To his surprise, she is much younger than he originally anticipated and quite the opposite of Sadie when it comes to personalities. Milo isn't able to stop thinking about Jackie and decides that he wants to get to know her better. He grows very excited when he learns that Jackie shares a mutual attraction to him, and the two begin a secret love affair.
