draft 1.5

Transferring in the middle of senior year wasn't in Milo's plans, but now he's in the middle of Maine living with his aunt and starting over. He's got his favorite book to ground him and not much else, until an eccentric group of friends decides he's part of their group. But what about the mysterious boy who Milo ran into on his first day?
