Description:
With the heart of Judy Blume and the wit of Alison Bechdel, Sara Farizan brings the authenticity and humor that distinguished her award-winning debut novel, If You Could Be Mine, to the story of Leila—a high school junior balancing the discoveries of coming of age, the demands of coming out, and the drama of high school love triangles. Leila has made it most of the way through Armstead Academy without having a crush on anyone, which is a relief. As an Iranian American, she’s different enough; if word got out that Leila liked girls, life would be twice as hard. But when beautiful new girl Saskia shows up, Leila starts to take risks she never thought she would. As she carefully confides in trusted friends about Saskia’s confusing signals, Leila begins to figure out that all her classmates are more complicated than they first appear to
be, and some are keeping surprising secrets of their own.
