Lauren Shippen’s The Infinite Sound is a stunning, original debut predicated on her wildly popular and award-winning podcast The Bright Classes.

Caleb Michaels is a sixteen-year-old champion running back. Besides that his existence is pretty normal. However when Caleb begins going through about The Infinite Sound: A Shiny Sessions Novel feeling swings that are out of the ordinary for a good teenager, his lifestyle techniques beyond “typical.”

Caleb can be an Atypical, a person with enhanced skills. Which sounds quite great except Caleb’s ability is extreme empathy-he feels the feelings of everyone around him. As an empath in senior high school would be hard enough, but Caleb’s lifestyle becomes even more complicated when he will keep getting pulled into the psychological orbit of one of his classmates, Adam. Adam’s feelings are big and all-consuming, however they fit together with Caleb’s feelings in a manner that he can’t quite understand.

Caleb’s therapist, Dr. Bright, encourages Caleb to explore this connection by befriending Adam. As he and Adam grow closer, Caleb learns more about his capability, himself, his therapist-who appears to know a lot more than she lets on-and precisely how dangerous as an Atypical can be.
