Compatibility

COURAGE - CHARACTER - CONVICTIONStom Carpenter has always lived on the fringes, navigating the confusing and isolating world of high school under an assumed name.

Misunderstood by his peers and even by himself, Stom carries the weight of struggles he can’t explain, living in a time when words like "autism" and "neurodivergent" were rarely spoken and even less understood.COMPATIBILITY WAS ONLY A NUMBER, BUT THAT NUMBER WAS NEXT TO HER NAME.STOM'S WORLD JUST CHANGED FOREVER.The school’s compatibility test was meant to be a harmless fundraiser—a fun way to encourage students to buy flowers and ask their "best match" to the dance.
