Lula knows she and Rory have no secrets from each other; after all, he came out to her years ago, and she's shared with him her \"sacred texts\"--the acting books her mother left behind after she walked out of Lula's life. But then Lula discovers that Rory--her Rory, who maybe she's secretly had feelings for--has not only tried out for the Hawthorne football team without telling her, but has also been having an affair with his middle-aged divorcee boss. With their friendship disrupted, Lula begins to question her identity and her own sexual orientation, and she runs away in the middle of the night on a journey to find her mother, who she hopes will have all the answers. Meagan Brother's piercing prose in this fresh LGBT YA novel speaks to anyone who has ever felt unwanted and alone, and who struggles to find their place in an isolating world. Ages 14-up.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMeagan Brothers\u003c\/b\u003e is a writer, poet and musician best known for her young adult novels \u003ci\u003eSupergirl Mixtapes, \u003c\/i\u003e a 2012 YALSA Best Fiction for Young Adults nomination, and \u003ci\u003eDebbie Harry Sings in French\u003c\/i\u003e, an ALA Best Book for Young Adults, which won a GLBT Round Table ALA Award, and was named a New York Public Library Book for the Teen Age.
