About

Alien meets Midsommar in this chilling debut adult novel from an award-winning author about the exploration of identity, survival, and transformation amidst an alien invasion set in the rural landscape of West Virginia.

Crane joined the Hive, a cult-like group that has taken root in the Appalachian wilderness, after he left home, after he transitioned, after he decided he wasn't going to speak again…and before he met fellow Hive member Levi. Before Levi and Crane started dating, he was the new addition to the local Hive in West Virginia, the enforcer, the killer, the one the Hive sent out to finish unsavory business. Now, Levi has gotten Crane pregnant, and they're both infected with the Hive's alien virus. This fetus is not completely human.



New York Times bestselling young adult author Andrew J. White has crafted a work of deeply personal horror amidst a slow-moving alien invasion. You Weren't Meant to Be Human is an evocative statement about the lives of voices that are not often highlighted when you think of an alien invasion, echoing the works of Stephen Graham Jones and Tananarive Due.
