Critics Review
Praise for Solo Stan by Talia Tucker:
“A joyful queer rom-com that’s reminiscent of Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist.”
—Publishers Weekly
“A wholesome whirlwind queer romance.”
—Kirkus Reviews
“A sweet and exciting queer romance.”
—Booklist
“Tucker’s new romance takes readers back to the world of Bobby Bae and Winter Park from Rules for Rule Breaking, where Bobby’s BFF Kai is about to have his summer turned upside down by the beautiful but complicated Elias.”
—School Library Journal
“Whether you’re a lonely hopeless romantic like Kai or a misunderstood troublemaker with a knack for self-sacrificing like Elias, these two boys will have your entire heart faster than they can steal each other’s. This book single-handedly healed my inner troubled teen who thought their love was too big for others to hold.”
—Sonora Reyes, bestselling author of the National Book Award Finalist The Lesbiana’s Guide to Catholic School
