Description
For Troy Hayes, a 16-year-old suffering from Tourette Syndrome and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, the number ten dictates his life, forcing him to do everything by its exacting rhythm. Fed up with the daily humiliation, loneliness, and physical pain he endures, Troy writes a list of ten things to do by the tenth anniversary of his diagnosis, culminating in suicide on the actual day. In the process of working his way through the list Troy becomes friends with Khory, a smart, beautiful classmate who has her own troubled history. Khory helps Troy cross off items on his list, unwittingly moving him ever closer to his grand finale. -- adapted from jacket
