Pete's a high school stoner/poet who's going through a shitty time in his life. First, his best friend's mother gets rocked by cancer, then his best friend decides to burn down their favorite weed and disappear. But there's something special about the weed: they call it Gwen Stacey (The Gwen for short) because there's a hint of sadness to it, a bit of lingering regret and loss that all of its users can't get enough of. It's something fucking magical. Pete starts to think that there's something more to this weed and his life when a bizarre series of events guide him back to his friend and towards his destiny. In his first YA novel, August explores the intricacies of loss and growth in the adolescent experience. Even in the magical and surreal, the effectual experience brings color and quirk to a painful and real search for identity and purpose.
