The companion to the award-winning Openly Straight and earner of three starred reviews, 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.

Honestly Ben

Sendo bantante sincera, não esperava muito desse livro, então não foi uma grande surpresa eu não ter gostado tanto.
Um dos principais motivos foi como teve muitas oportunidades para desenvolver melhor o personagem principal, e acabou que as coisas foram acontecendo e foram mudando, mas o personagem continuou na mesma, o que me deixou bastante aflita.
Apesar de tudo isso foi uma leitura agradável, o inglês foi fácil de entender.
