Save Yourself (Tales From Foster High)

Save Yourself (Tales From Foster High) - John Goode
BR, June 12th with Paul, Sonia, Momo and Julie (re-read for her).

4,5 stars


Lovely novella in which Matt learns the whole truth what happened the night that Riley died in the hit and run accident.

Tyler and Matt are dating and they have a run in with Tyler’s mother, Dolores. She makes a terrible scene at the expense of Tyler…. And Tyler panicks.

“This man befriended my son and then left him to die in the middle of nowhere while his husband screamed for someone to help them. This is the man who decided it was more prudent to let someone who called him a friend die in the same manner one does to a stray dog rather than stop and try to help him. This is the man you are dating.”


Again… so painful

Matt refuses to let Tyler go and plans to convince Tyler he is worthy of love.

“You left Robbie there all alone, and that is something you’re going to have to make up to him someday. Maybe not now, but soon. Not for me, but because you can’t live with this guilt anymore. You hate yourself for things you didn’t do, and I’m tired of it because I love you for everything you can’t see you are.
You fucked up - it happens.

Time to let yourself up off the mat.”


Highly recommended for Foster High lovers and it left me longing for the release of When I Grow Up (Foster High #8)
