George hasn't had an easy life after being diagnosed with autism. Going to a public school as an autistic, highly intelligent boy, he clearly notices the differences between his classmates and himself, giving him a lot of insecurity and shame about his own behaviour.
As his escape, he goes to a bakery for hours a day to calm his mind, but things change when a new boy who moved is hired. Unexpectedly, and for the first time, George decides to open himself up to the new boy, Clay, while at the same time, Clay slowly starts falling for his new best friend, George.
Mostly fluff with some angst every now and then!
⚠️ I wrote this book from my own experience and my own mindset, as someone with diagnosed autism, highly intelligent and ADHD. I DON'T think people with autism are childish or cute, I'm not projecting a stereotype. This is from my own struggles with autism at a public school without special needs.
When George moves to America, he needs to get used to everything. His new high school, all new people, his whole new life. George is scared for getting bullied again. He hopes to make a new start, but unfortunately, people don't leave him alone because of his condition: severe stuttering. He meets a boy, named Clay, who seems to accept him. George feels comfortable around him and notices he feels weird around him. Happier and positive, but very confused. His feelings start growing and both boys try and keep this a secret. Will their love win from everything?
