Som trommeslager i et band har Leah intet problem med at finde takten - men det er ikke helt så let i det virkelige liv. Hun elsker at tegne, men tør ikke vise sine tegninger til nogen. Og selvom hendes mor ved, at hun er biseksuel, har Leah endnu ikke fortalt det til sine venner - og ikke engang til sin bedste ven Simon, som er homoseksuel. Afslutningen på high school nærmer sig, der er spændinger og uro blandt vennerne, og det går efterhånden op for Leah, at hun måske er ved at forelske sig i en af dem.

There’s no way he’d ever knock on doors to ask people for their votes...until he meets Maya. Maya Rehman’s having the worst Ramadan ever. Her best friend is too busy to hang out, her summer trip is cancelled, her parents are separating and now her mother thinks the solution to her problems is political canvassing - with some awkward guy she hardly knows....

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of The Upside of Unrequited by Becky Albertalli, read by Arielle DeLisle. Seventeen-year-old Molly Peskin-Suso knows all about unrequited love - she's lived through it 26 times. She crushes hard and crushes often but always in secret. Because no matter how many times her twin sister, Cassie, tells her to woman up, Molly can't stomach the idea of rejection. So she's careful. Fat girls always have to be careful....

Jamie Goldberg is cool with volunteering for his local state senate candidate - as long as he’s behind the scenes. When it comes to speaking to strangers (or, let’s face it, speaking at all to almost anyone) Jamie’s a choke artist. There’s no way he’d ever knock on doors to ask people for their votes...until he meets Maya. Maya Rehman’s having the worst Ramadan ever. Why her mother thinks the solution to her problems is political canvassing - with some awkward dude she hardly knows - is beyond her.

Die 17-jährige Imogen sieht sich schon immer als größte Ally: Sie unterstützt ihre queeren Freunde, wo sie nur kann. Als sie ihre beste Freundin Lili - frisch geoutet und ziemlich glücklich in ihrem Leben - an der Uni besucht, weiß jedoch niemand in Lilis neuer Clique, dass Imogen selbst nicht queer ist. Denn Lili hat rumerzählt, dass sie und Imogen in der Vergangenheit ein Paar waren. Plötzlich beschäftigt sich Imogen mit Fragen, die sie bisher immer verdrängt hat. Noch dazu verbringt sie mehr und mehr Zeit mit der charmant-chaotischen Tessa, die ihr ganz schönes Bauchkribbeln beschert.

Imogen may be hopelessly heterosexual, but she’s got the World’s Greatest Ally title locked down. And when she visits her best friend, Lili, at college who is newly out, newly graduated, and newly thriving, with a cool new squad of queer college friends, no one knows that Imogen’s a raging hetero – not even Lili’s best friend, Tessa. Of course, the more time Imogen spends with chaotic, freckle-faced Tessa, the more she starts to wonder if her truth was ever all that straight to begin with.

Lili drops a tiny queer bombshell: she's told all her college friends that Imogen and Lili used to date. And none of them know that Imogen is a raging hetero—not even Lili’s best friend, Tessa. Of course, the more time Imogen spends with chaotic, freckle-faced Tessa, the more she starts to wonder if her truth was ever all that straight to begin with. . .

Leah odeia demonstrações públicas de afeto. Odeia clichês adolescentes. Odeia quem odeia Harry Potter. Odeia o novo namorado da mãe. Odeia pessoas fofas e felizes. Ela odeia muitas coisas e não tem o menor problema em expor suas opiniões. Mas, ultimamente, ela tem se sentido estranha, como se algo em sua vida estivesse fora de sintonia. No último ano do colégio, em poucas semanas vai ter que se despedir dos amigos, da mãe, da banda em que toca bateria, de tudo que conhece.

Foi na Creekwood High School que Simon e Blue se conheceram e se apaixonaram, e também onde Leah e Abby descobriram que o que sentiam uma pela outra era mais do que amizade. Ao que tudo indicava, a jornada de Simon e seus amigos tinha chegado ao fim, mas, para a surpresa e alegria dos fãs, o grupo está de volta em uma novela inédita.
