Inspired by Judy Blume€s Forever and Virginia Woolf€s Mrs. Dalloway, this novel that Andrew Smith calls €œbeautiful, enchanting, [and] exquisitely written€ is a new classic about teenage relationships, self-acceptance€"and what happens when the walls we build start coming down. A Kirkus Best Book of 2017!

Adam Thorn doesn€t know it yet, but today will change his life.

Between his religious family, a deeply unpleasant ultimatum from his boss, and his own unrequited love for his sort-of ex, Enzo, it seems as though Adam€s life is falling apart.  At least he has two people to keep him sane: his new boyfriend (he does love Linus, doesn€t he?) and his best friend, Angela.

But all day long, old memories and new heartaches come crashing together, throwing Adam€s life into chaos. The bindings of his world are coming untied one by one; yet in spite of everything he has to let go, he may also find freedom in the release.

From the New York Times bestselling author of A Monster Calls comes a raw, darkly funny, and deeply affecting story about the courage it takes to live your truth.
