Becky Albertalli strana 2 z 3

Sokak szerint a tragédia ott kezdődik, amikor nem jelentkezel ki rendesen a leveleződből, és a féltve őrzött titkaid rossz kezekbe kerülnek. A tizenhat éves Simon Spierrel pontosan ez történt. Martin Addison pedig nem rest megzsarolni a fiút, hogy legyen a randiszervező csicskája, ellenkező esetben közszemlére bocsájtja a mailt a sulis Tumblren, ami köztudottan a Creekwood gimi pletykaközpontja. És akkor apu, anyu, a barátok, a tanárok és legfőképpen Blue is megtudja, hogy Simon MELEG. Hogy kicsoda bluegreen118? Ezt még maga Simon sem tudja, bár több hete leveleznek haverokról, zenéről, oreozabálásról, vágyakról és félelmekről, no meg arról, hogy milyen ciki is ez a coming out-ügy. Blue valódi kiléte azonban teljes rejtély... Simonnak fel kell vállalnia az érzéseit, még akkor is, ha az egész suli ezzel szekálja majd, vagy ha otthon kitagadják, hiszen Blue létezik, egy srác, aki csak rá vár, akiért érdemes... Becky Albertalli első regényének hősébe immár 13 országban szerelmesek a lányok, és hát mit tagadjuk, a fiúk is.

Na začátku všeho byly nevinné zprávy Tumblru… Poté co se Simon zapomněl odhlásit ze školního počítače, najde jeho korespondenci spolužák Martin a začne ho vydírat. Simon je totiž gay a před svými spolužáky to stále tají. Poslední dny trávil korespondencí se zajímavým klukem ze školy s přezdívkou Blue a natolik se sblížili, že by zvlášť jeho nerad vystavil nějaké trapné situaci a pomluvám. Spolužáci dovedou být pěkní sígři! On by to ustál, ale co Blue? Zná ho zatím jen po síti, ale kdo je Blue doopravdy? Žádného kluka ze školy, co by byl gay, nezná… S nerdem Martinem ale není radno si zahrávat, a tak se snaží vyhovět jeho požadavku: dostat se co nejblíž Simonově nejlepší kamarádce Abby. Simon Martina vtáhne do jejich party, ale Abby z toho není nijak nadšená a Simonovo tajemství je v ohrožení… Autorka za knihu obdržela William C. Morris Award a byla nominována na americkou Národní cenu za literaturu. Kniha byla několika periodiky jmenována za jednu z nejlepších knih v žánru young adult uplynulého roku.

Molly ví všechno o bolestech neopětované lásky. A je jedno, jak moc jí její dvojče vyzývá, aby se vzchopila a šla do toho. Molly totiž není štíhlá modelka a holky, které nejsou štíhlé, ba právě naopak, musí být opatrné. Jenže pak se kolem jejího dvojčete začne točit nová dívka a sama Molly narazí na jistého superfanouška Tolkiena, u kterého je naprosto vyloučené, aby se do něj zamilovala... nebo snad ne?

Šestnáctiletý Simon už nějakou dobu ví, že je gay, ale ještě není připravený sdělit to okolnímu světu. Jedinou výjimkou je tajemný Blue, se kterým si Simon už několik měsíců vyměňuje e-maily a jejich vzájemné pouto sílí. Jenže pak citlivá korespondence padne do nesprávných rukou a Simon se stane obětí vydírání: buď udělá, co se po něm chce, i když se mu to příčí, nebo riskuje, že si tajné e-maily přečte celá škola. V sázce je však ještě mnohem víc – plachého Bluea by nechtěná publicita mohla vyděsit a Simon už by nikdy nezjistil, kdo Blue ve skutečnosti je…

Critically acclaimed and bestselling authors Becky Albertalli and Adam Silvera combine their talents in this smart, funny, heartfelt collaboration about two very different boys who can't decide if the universe is pushing them together—or pulling them apart. ARTHUR is only in New York for the summer, but if Broadway has taught him anything, it's that the universe can deliver a showstopping romance when you least expect it. BEN thinks the universe needs to mind its business. If the universe had his back, he wouldn't be on his way to the post office carrying a box of his ex-boyfriend's things. But when Arthur and Ben meet-cute at the post office, what exactly does the universe have in store for them . . . ? Maybe nothing. After all, they get separated. Maybe everything. After all, they get reunited. But what if they can't nail a first date even after three do-overs? What if Arthur tries too hard to make it work and Ben doesn't try hard enough? What if life really isn't like a Broadway play? But what if it is? What if it's us?

K tomu všemu má Leah velké tajemství – je totiž bisexuálka. Nikomu to ale neřekla, a tak ani její nejlepší kamarád Simon Spier, který se nedávno sám přiznal k homosexualitě, netuší, čím si jeho kamarádka prochází. Teď když se blíží maturita a každý míří na jinou vysokou školu, jediná jistota v jejím životě – parta milovaných kamarádů – se rozpadá. Leah najednou neví, co by měla dělat, jak by se měla zachovat a jestli náhodou není čas udělat to, co jí nahání největší hrůzu: Říct jedné konkrétní osobě, že je do ní zamilovaná.
