The Art of Falling
Callum has always flown under the radar. With only his best friend Brittney by his side, he's learned to keep his head down, blending into the background of high school life. He doesn't see himself as anyone special-just a quiet "nobody" who avoids the spotlight. What he doesn't realize is that the pieces of himself he's never questioned are about to shift. Gabriel, on the other hand, is everything Callum isn't: confident, popular, openly gay, and a star on the football team. He's kind, approachable, and the type of person everyone seems drawn to. When fate-or maybe just high school drama-pulls Callum into Gabriel's orbit, Callum begins to experience feelings he can't explain. As Gabriel takes notice of the quiet boy who always seemed invisible, Callum finds himself torn between the safety of who he's always been and the terrifying, thrilling possibility of who he might become. It's a story of first love, unexpected courage, and learning that sometimes the person who makes you feel seen is the one you least expected.

Told in the perspective of both Elliot and James, two college students who meet in art school, Thank You, Elliot explores the fears and fantasies of the pair as they travel back home after a road trip to San Diego. Truthful and raw, Elliot's voice empowers the dread and confusion he feels toward liking James, a thoughtful, caring boy who, for once, seems to actually like him back. Every little thing he and James do together is new, exciting, and frightening, and yet nothing seems to settle his mind or please him enough to be content. Plagued by a childhood that raised him to believe he was defective, his mind is constantly riddled with discomfort and sadness. James, on the other hand, is a voice of confidence and understanding. From the second he tried to hold Elliot's hand, he knew who he was dealing with. Driven by a passion he's never felt for anyone else before, he's willing to try and work his way into Elliot's heart. But as they continue to explore more of one another, it becomes clearer that this will not be an easy task, even for him. Whether lost cause or not, Thank You Elliot is a story of love, fear, and everything in between. It's a journey of self-discovery and warmth in a cold, cold world.Complete
