Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda

I didn't one hundred percent believe I was gay. Or maybe I didn't think it was permanent...Simon Spier is sixteen and trying to work out who he is - and what he's looking for. But when one of Simon's emails to the mysterious Blue falls into the wrong hands, things get all kinds of complicated. If Mum thinks me drinking coffee is big news it's going to be quite a morning. Can Simon find a way to step out of his comfort zone before he's pushed or is it already too late for him and the most adorable guy he's never met? The thing is, once you come out, you can't really go back in. Because, for Simon, falling for Blue is a big deal...It's a holy freaking huge awesome deal. The best kind of book challenges your assumptions and opens your eyes to a new way of thinking about the world. The best kind of romance makes you forget age, gender and sexual orientation, and sweeps you off your feet. SIMON is the best kind of both.
