The Rest of Us Just Live Here By Patrick Ness
Feb 11, 2024 
The Rest of Us Just Live Here by Patrick Ness is a brilliant young adult novel that playfully subverts the conventions of the genre. In a world where supernatural events frequently occur, we follow the lives of ordinary teenagers who are not the “Chosen Ones.” Mikey, our protagonist, just wants to graduate, attend prom, and maybe gather the courage to ask Henna out—without the world ending around him.
While the indie kids battle zombies and soul-eating ghosts, Mikey grapples with everyday problems, like surviving high school and navigating friendships. Ness weaves humor, heart, and a touch of satire into this delightful exploration of the extraordinary within the ordinary.
