Über diesen Titel

A pitch-perfect middle-grade audio memoir about crushes, coming out, and finding the courage to be yourself.

Eighth grade isn't off to a great start. Everyone but Rex seems to be coupling up, and he's starting to feel like an outsider... until he meets Charlotte. She's fearless, smart, pretty, and she likes him back. But as great as Charlotte is, there's someone else Rex can't stop thinking about.

Drew is Rex's childhood best friend, so when he kisses Rex, all kinds of new feelings begin to stir. Though at school, Drew acts like he doesn't even know Rex, making those feelings turn really confusing really fast. And with all the strong opinions Rex hears from friends and at church, he questions his own worth and what his affections actually mean. Rex wants to be more like his new friend, Nina, and not care what others think, but being himself seems impossible. When did middle school get so confusing?!

Kritikerstimmen

★ "Funny, sad, goofy, and poignant; a winner." Kirkus Reviews, starred review

★ "A ­triumphant ­addition to an already excellent series, highly recommended for middle school collections and ­libraries."—School Library Journal, starred review

"[A] candid graphic novel memoir... Humor-laced dialogue adds levity to nuanced portrayals of one middle schooler's grappling with his sexuality alongside other sensitively considered interpretations of tweens exploring self-image and families contending with financial insecurity."—Publishers Weekly
