Reviews"A refreshing and honest exploration of the pressures a culture of toxic masculinity places on teenagers that tenderly portrays its effects, not only on young women, but also the negative impact it has on young men. An important and necessary book for our time." --Amber Smith, New York Times bestselling author of The Way I Used to Be

Grade FromNinth Grade

SynopsisThis "important and necessary book for our time" (Amber Smith, New York Times bestselling author of The Way I Used to Be ) confronts the myth of the friend zone as a boy in love with his best friend feels he's owed a chance at romance--and she's the only one in their lives who disagrees. For as long as anyone can remember, Zeke Ladoja and Imogen Parker have been best friends. Their classmates, their parents, and even the school custodian think that they're meant to be together. And that's exactly what Zeke wants: for Gen to be his girlfriend. Now that she's about to be sixteen (and allowed to date), Zeke is finally going to tell her how he feels--in front of everyone at her birthday party. Imogen loves Zeke with all her heart, but only as a friend. The pressure to be with Zeke has sometimes been overwhelming, but up to this point, she's been able to manage it. Then she falls for the new boy, Trevor Cook, and she knows the news will devastate Zeke. The last thing she wants to do is hurt her best friend, but she also resents the fact that no one seems to care about what she wants. The night of Gen's party, everything goes wrong. There's backlash, most of it directed at Gen, and Zeke feels emboldened. He isn't about to give up on his feelings, and he'll do whatever it takes to prove that she made the wrong choice...even if it means destroying their friendship. But Gen isn't about to give up on fighting for herself and the freedom to love the boy she wants, not the boy she's expected to be with.
