This book will save lives. --Jarrett J. Krosoczka, author of National Book Award Finalist Hey, Kiddo I know I\'m not gay. Gay boys like other boys. I hate boys. They\'re mean, and scary, and they\'re always destroying something or saying something dumb or both. I hate that word. Gay. It makes me feel . . . unsafe. It\'s the summer between middle school and high school, and Aiden Navarro is away at camp. Everyone\'s going through changes--but for Aiden, the stakes feel higher. As he navigates friendships, deals with bullies, and spends time with Elias (a boy he can\'t stop thinking about), he finds himself on a path of self-discovery and acceptance. Godwin Books
