Benji is awkward, gay, and barely survived high school. Now he has to survive the apocalypse. After a cosmic event blankets the world in black dust, unleashing a deadly plague and collapsing society, seventeen-year-old Benji sets off alone to find other people. He's prepared for illness, for lawlessness, for solitude. What he isn't prepared for is Cabe, the broody, straight classmate who just saved him from a would-be mugger. Cabe has one goal: protect his baby sister and find their missing mom. Benji? He has a crush on Cabe the size of the roiling space dust cloud that looms over their town. But Cabe is moody and focused on survival, and Benji talks too much and keeps catching feelings. As the unlikely trio treks through their decimated city, scavenging supplies and dodging threats, Benji and Cabe find moments of warmth, laughter, and something dangerously close to love. But when grief, mistrust, and dangerous survivors threaten their fragile connection, Benji must decide if love is worth the heartbreak...even at the end of the world. Still Awkward at the End of the World is a 74k word standalone YA post-apocalyptic queer romance that blends the raw survivalism of The Last of Us with the tender heart of Red, White & Royal Blue and the emotional tension of They Both Die at the End. It's awkward. It's gay. And somehow, it's still hopeful.
