Lucy Schraan isn't just nervous about dating someone - she's positively datephobic. When she comes out to her over-involved nerd friends, though, they convince her that her time has come: Lucy Schraan is going to find a partner. (Probably.) *** When Lucy comes out as pansexual to her close friends - a group of AP-taking, theatre-loving nerds - they're not surprised. (Surprisingly.) In fact, they want to help her find a partner. There are a plethora of cute girls in her arts school, like Ash Kagawa in her APUSH class and thespian queen Lia LaFollette, and Gene Mann from her required gym credit has weirdly nice forearms. (Like, nice-nice.) Lucy is terrified of dating, though. She's comfortable playing other people, experimenting with different parts and different lives. Living her own life? Absolutely terrifying. *** Picture "YOU DON'T LIVE HERE" by Robyn Schneider meets "THE UPSIDE OF UNREQUITED" by Becky Albertalli. ***UPDATES EVERY FRIDAY. PROBABLY.

[Featured in FreetheLGBT: Diverse Literature reading list and Humor: Young. Dumb. Full of Fun list] Colin Mitchell, a photographer at a well-known store, Snapshot, is openly gay--mostly. His ideal experiences are sexcapades that are always subtle, never out of line and straight to the point. (Ironic, isn't it?) However, he meets Peter Chu: a snarky Chinese student with a loud mouth and more issues than Vogue. His intriguing persona has Colin enraptured and willing to throw away his CADBMBB- 'Clients Aren't Dated, But May Be Banged' principle--and take things further than they've ever gone with any guy. Circumstances push both their lives together, with Peter seeking to find his own path after a bad break up and a significant move. Colin is willing to walk that blazed trail with him--in more ways than one. But there is one problem... Peter is as straight as they come. Kinda. ♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤ Highest rankings: #1 in blindness- 31/07/2020 #1 in freethelgbt- 24/01/2021 #1 in gay- 22/05/2021 #4 in teenfiction- 22/05/2021 #4 in bxb out of 78.5K- 20/05/2021 #4 in pride- 09/11/2020 Warning: Contains mature language, violence and steamy scenes.
