Boys with Sharp Teeth Book by Jenni Howell

THE DEBUT NOVEL FROM JENNI HOWELL

Boys with Sharp Teeth

Releasing Winter 2025

WE WERE LIARS meets THE RAVEN BOYS in this steamy, mind-bending YA debut about revenge, forbidden desires, and the sinister secrets lurking behind the walls of an elite boarding school.

Seventeen-year-old Marin James has spent her entire life living in the shadow of the exclusive Huntsworth Academy. And when her cousin’s dead body is found in a creek on school property, Marin knows exactly who’s to blame: Adrian Graves and Henry Wu, the enigmatic yet dangerously alluring leaders of the school’s social elite.

Swapping her ragged T-shirts for a crisp prep school uniform, Marin infiltrates Huntsworth to seek justice. But her quest is quickly muddied by a confusing attraction to her new life, and to the two dysfunctional and depraved boys who somehow understand her better than anyone ever has.

When Marin uncovers a dark secret the boys are hiding within Huntsworth’s ivied gates, the lines between right and wrong, love and hate, and the real and supernatural begin to crumble — and nothing is as it seems.

Welcome to Huntsworth Academy.

I am Jenni Howell.

…a chaotic marshmallow writing tangled, romantic books that bite. When I’m not scribbling murder, I can be found frolicking in shark-print overalls, vibrating from way too many americanos, buying piles of books, and generally being a joyful menace to society.
 
I hope you love my books enough to hug them, scream at them and maybe, if I’m lucky, even throw them across the room. Just don’t throw me.
