From the break-out author of The Gravity of Us comes a heartfelt coming-of-age story about finding your chosen people. Perfect for fans of Becky AlbertalliMarty arrives in London with nothing but his oboe and some savings from his summer job, but he' s excited to start his new life--where he' s no longer the closeted, shy kid who slips under the radar and is free to explore his sexuality without his parents' disapproval. From the outside, Marty' s life looks like a perfect fantasy: in the span of a few weeks, he' s made new friends, he' s getting closer with his first ever boyfriend, and he' s even traveling around Europe. But Marty knows he can' t keep up the facade. He hasn' t spoken to his parents since he arrived, he' s tearing through his meager savings, his homesickness and anxiety are getting worse and worse, and he hasn' t even come close to landing the job of his dreams. Will Marty be able to find a place that feels like home?
