In raw, poignant alternating first-person narratives, interspersed with e-mails, gay chat-room exchanges, and other fragments of a youth laid bare in the age of social media, The Lost Prayers of Ricky Graves unravels the mystery of a life in all its glory: despair and regret, humor and wonder, courage and connection.A heartbroken and humiliated Ricky Graves took the life of a classmate and himself. Five months later, the sleepy community is still in shock and mourning. Ricky’s sister, Alyssa, returns to confront her shattered, withdrawn mother and her guilt over the brother she left adrift. Mark McVitry, the lone survivor of the deadly outburst sparked by his own cruelty, is tormented by visions of Ricky’s vengeful spirit. Ricky’s surrogate older brother, Corky Meeks, grapples with doubts about the fragile boy he tried to protect but may have doomed instead. And Jeremy Little, who inadvertently became Ricky’s long-distance Internet crush despite never having met, seeks to atone for failing to hear his friend’s cries for help.For those closest to the tormented killer, shock and grief have given way to soul searching, as they’re forced to confront their broken dreams, buried desires, and missed opportunities. And in their shared search for meaning and redemption, Ricky’s loved ones find a common purpose: learning to trust their feelings, fighting for real intimacy in a world grown selfish and insincere, and fearlessly embracing all that matters most…before it’s gone from their lives. Review Though the title signals this is a religious novel, Mattsons mesmerizing and patient unspooling of the life of doomed teen Ricky Graves roots itself instead in the all-too-human and flawed relationships between mother and child, brother and sister, mentor and protege, and bully and victim. A few months after Ricky Graves shoots a fellow high school student and then turns the gun on himself after declaring, “I will never be embarrassed again,” the small New Hampshire town is still reeling from the murder-suicide. Ricky’s very pregnant older sister comes home to help her mother, Ricky’s online chat buddy from San Francisco tries to help Ricky’s sister, and two teens from Ricky’s class try to sort out in their own heads the bullying and the murder and whether they could have stopped it. Everyone is broken; everyone is achingly human. Mattson gives each character his or her own unique voice, the chapters as honest and raw as diary entries. And among all the soul searching, Mattson lets Ricky himself slowly appear, warts and all.The Lost Prayers of Ricky Graves might sound depressing, and in many ways it is, but the new bonds the characters form in the aftermath is a bright spot. Gripping and awful, and hypnotic and hopeful.--Adrian Liang, Amazon Book Review Review Named an Amazon Books Best of the Month“Mattson expertly teases out the relationships between our real lives and our social media feeds, the faces we show to the world and the ones we must confront in the mirror. A moving debut about the intersections of rural queerness, the internet, and forgiveness.” -Kirkus Reviews“Mattson’s first novel is an excellent, character-driven work of literary fiction that will continue to resonate with the reader long after the final page.” -Booklist“Mattson fully inhabits the characters who come together to render Ricky’s last year of life, and he punches hard in every scene, evoking feelings of anger and regret that any teen should ever be bullied or ostracized because of his sexuality. He also manages to create a palpable aura of suspense, backtracking into the events that led to the shooting. Ultimately, however, the real tension of The Lost Prayers of Ricky Graves doesn’t come from discovering why Ricky took his classmate’s life and his own, but from learning about the desperate, aching loneliness of a young man with whom many interacted but few ever really knew.” -Los Angeles Revie
