‘The love child of John Green and Rainbow Rowell’ - Teen Vogue

When it comes to drumming, Leah Burke is usually on beat - but real life isn’t always so rhythmic.

And even though her mom knows she’s bisexual, she hasn’t mustered the courage to tell her friends - not even her openly gay BFF, Simon.

With some messy dynamics emerging in this once tight-knit group…

The love child of John Green and Rainbow Rowell

I love this fresh, funny, live-out-loud book. – Jennifer Niven, New York Times bestselling author of All the Bright PlacesThe love child of John Green and Rainbow Rowell * Teen Vogue *

A remarkable gift of a novel.

– Andrew Smith, author of Grasshopper JungleBoth hilarious and heart-breaking * Publishers Weekly (starred review) *A brilliant beacon of optimism and cuteness for LGBTQA+ youth in a genre often bogged down with tragedy and heartbreak. Books like SIMON do change people’s lives – Waterstones Darlington
