"Peter Bognanni's How to Lose Yourself Completely is a book to lose yourself in, completely. Through stunning prose, this novel of uncommon depth and astounding empathy will take you on a powerful and hopeful adventure into the human heart that will leave you breathless." —Abdi Nazemian, Stonewall and Lambda Award-winning author of Like a Love Story and Only This Beautiful Moment.
An incredibly poignant story about a teen grappling with grief and anxiety who is sent to wilderness "adventure therapy,” where he meets a group of friends who will change his life forever. With its captivating voice and dry wit, this novel is perfect for fans of Jandy Nelson and John Green.
Ever  since Sean's death, Case's anxiety has been spiraling. Sean wasn't just  his older brother-he was also Case's best friend. The only person who  really got him.
When his parents suggest “adventure  therapy,” Case is desperate enough to agree. Maybe  roughing it in the woods with a group of anxious strangers will help him find  a way forward. After he boards the bus, he sees the one person he's been  trying to avoid: Diana. Sean's girlfriend.
Once they  set off, there is the expected cringey singing  and forced sharing. But when their counselor mysteriously disappears, the trip  suddenly turns into a journey of survival. This group of kids, with nothing in common but their prescriptions and lack of social skills, will have to band  together to make it back home. In the process, they will change each other's  lives forever.
From award-winning author Peter Bognanni comes a profound, surprising, and  hopeful novel about grief and love.
