In the companion to Openly Straight, Ben confronts pressure at school, repression at home, and his passion for two very different people in figuring out what it takes to be Honestly Ben.

The companion to the award-winning Openly Straight, called "remarkable...deeply satisfying and as honest as its appealing protagonist" (Booklist). Perfect for fans of David Levithan, Andrew Smith, and John Green!

Ben Carver is back to normal. He's working steadily in his classes at the Natick School. He just got elected captain of the baseball team. He's even won a full scholarship to college, if he can keep up his grades. All that foolishness with Rafe Goldberg the past semester is in the past.

Except...There's Hannah, the gorgeous girl from the neighboring school, who attracts him and distracts him. There's his mother, whose quiet unhappiness Ben is noticing for the first time. School is harder, the pressure higher, the scholarship almost slipping away. And there's Rafe, funny, kind, dating someone else . . . and maybe the real normal that Ben needs.

Kritikerröster

"Dan Bittner's narration develops the unique personality of 17-year-old Ben, a secondary character in Konigsberg's earlier book Openly Straight.... In this follow-up, Bittner quickly reveals Ben's intelligence and introspection.... In a complex portrait, Bittner captures Ben's confused central conflict - is he gay, or straight, or is he only 'gay-for-Rafe'? Keeping the plot engaging, Bittner highlights Ben's search for his identity." (AudioFile)

I really like this book series but gods.. Rave(?) is so exhausting in this book, he constantly makes fun of Ben calling himself not gay. Like hello? respect your boyfriend and don't force him to use labels he doesn't want to use. istfg. The mother too. I also don't get why they always use like genderfluid as the go to gender and not transgender which is the umbrella term? feels fake and like they actually don't know anything about the community

Ooof

I suggest that you read/listen "Openly Straight" first.
Very interesting story for youngsters and adult gay. bi and straight alike.

Room for improvement:
The "I/He/She said/asked"s need to be reduced drastically in the audiobook version. They are simply too many and irritating.

Terrific Story

Sooooo goood! Can't believe I listened to this in ONE GO. I love this interpretation you can bring in anywhere in the book. And I want to marry the genderfluid, gay, totally funny Toby, if I've written his/her name correct.....

Damn good

I was actually surprised how deep this book is. It challenged me and left me with a warm feeling of connection and acceptance.
Thank you!
A very important book for straight people, gay people and mostly anyone else.
