"No faces, no eyes. Not if you want to survive."
Riley lives in a lonely world where a single look drives people into frenzied violence. Stay alive by staying away from people. This state of affairs has become routine to her: "It's horrifying. Then it's weird. Then it's just inconvenient."

From Marcus' list on books that will make you want to sleep with the lights on.
