Love can be a real monster. Sixteen-year-old Boy’s never left home. When you’re the
son of Frankenstein’s monster and the Bride, it’s tough
to go out in public, unless you want to draw the attention
of a torch-wielding mob. And since Boy and his family live
in a secret enclave of monsters hidden under Times Square,
it’s important they maintain a low profile. Boy’s only interactions with the world are through the
Internet, where he’s a hacker extraordinaire who can hide
his hulking body and stitched-together face behind a layer
of code. When conflict erupts at home, Boy runs away and
embarks on a cross-country road trip with the granddaughters
of Jekyll and Hyde, who introduce him to malls and diners,
love and heartbreak. But no matter how far Boy runs, he
can’t escape his demons—both literal and
figurative—until he faces his family once more. This hilarious, romantic, and wildly imaginative tale
redefines what it means to be a monster—and a man.
