Bruiser by Neal Shusterman (2010)


Inexplicable events start to occur when sixteen-year-old twins Tennyson and Brontë befriend a troubled and misunderstood outcast, aptly nicknamed Bruiser, and his little brother, Cody. Brusier absorbs all pain, physical and emotional, unto himself from those he cares about. His unconscionable uncle and guardian knows Brusier's secret and keep's him secluded to hoard Brusier's healing powers. Even after his uncle's death Brusier's suffering gets exploited, even by friends, flawed friends. 2010-2011 Lone Star List. Some violence.
