Punk 57

Penelope Douglas

Release Date: October 21, 2016

Misha and Ryen have been penpals since fifth grade when each of their teachers mistook the gender of their name and paired them together.

But when Misha sees a girl named Ryen online and recognizes all of her interests, he’s extremely curious. What he didn’t expect, though, was to hate what he found. Now Ryen is wondering why Misha hasn’t returned her letters in three months and is regretting not knowing any other way to contact him. They’re essentially strangers, she knows this, but she realizes just how much she misses not talking to him when the letters stop.
