“David Levithan is an icon of queer young adult fiction. Romance, realism, and relationship drama – Levithan's stories are where my love for queer YA was born.” – Alice Oseman

From the New York Times bestselling author of Every Day, this is a queer love story for the ages—told over the course of a couple’s first ten dates.

When a blue-haired boy (Ryan) meets a pink-haired boy (Avery) at a dance—a queer prom—both feel an inexplicable but powerful connection. Follow them through their first ten dates as they bridge their initial shyness and fall in love—through snowstorms, groundings, meeting parents (Avery’s) and not (Ryan’s), cast parties, heartbreak, and every day and date in between.
