Über diesen Titel

From the award-winning author of Openly Straight, a story about two teens falling in love over a summer that throws everything possible to keep them apart.

Max: Chill. Sports. Video games. Gay and not a big deal, not to him, not to his mom, not to his buddies. And a secret: An encounter with an older kid that makes it hard to breathe, one that he doesn't want to think about, ever.

Jordan: The opposite of chill. Poetry. His "wives" and the Chandler Mall. Never been kissed and searching for Mr. Right, who probably won't like him anyway. And a secret: A spiraling out of control mother, and the knowledge that he's the only one who can keep the family from falling apart.

Throw in a rickety, 1980s-era food truck called Coq Au Vinny. Add in prickly pears, cloud eggs, and a murky idea of what's considered locally sourced and organic. Place it all in Mesa, Arizona, in June, where the temp regularly hits 114. And top it off with a touch of undeniable chemistry between utter opposites.

Over the course of one summer, two boys will have to face their biggest fears and decide what they're willing to risk - to get the thing they want the most.

Kritikerstimmen

"Through the empathetic performances of two narrators, we meet gay Arizona high schoolers Jordan and Max, and their families and friends.... Froomkin and Perez's heartfelt portrayals ensure that listeners are in sync with the characters as they deal with everything from a traumatic sexual encounter and mental health issues to toxic masculinity and figuring out how to be true to oneself."

I love this book SO much. So I wanted to read it again and listen along. Enjoy it with all senses. As some other peope here have already expained: The narrator of Jordan makes it impossible to enjoy this amazing text. This is by far the worst performance I have ever experienced. Absolutely no feeling, This is not what a teenager sounds like. Ever.

I am sure this person has a good heart and is a very nice human being. I am really not trying to be horrible. I just want to warn fans of the text: You can not unhear this. It will drive you crazy.

So, I am urging you: Read the book. Skip the audiobook.

Heartache , romance and disappointment..a rollercoaster of emotions. Max and Jordan certainly have a lot to deal with.
A sensitive observation of dealing with ineffective parents, racism and prejudice. Well worth dipping into.

Heart warming coming-of-age story
