Heather, the totality

Summary: Heather is the glowing center of the Breakstone family. She's beautiful and magnetic, worshipped by all, especially her parents, Mark and Karen. To outsiders, their family seems perfect---rich, successful, happy---but, in reality, Mark is plagued by insecurity, Karen is deeply lonely, and their family life is suffering. As a result, Heather feels simultaneously neglected and smothered by her parents, and is irritated by their inability to provide a more balanced and stable version of love. Bobby Klasky is having some issues of his own. After being released from prison, he's just trying to survive---working odd jobs to make enough money to eat and move out of his drug addict mother's trailer. He's doing okay for himself, but he's not mentally stable. In truth, he thinks people are disgusting, and he would really love to torture them and rape them and kill them until they're all dead---starting with the most beautiful person first. If you think you know where this story is going, well, you probably do. --From Goodreads.
