A warm, hopeful coming-of-age romance about a closeted teen navigating identity, self-acceptance, and first love with humor and genuine heart.

Everyone deserves a great love story, but for 17-year-old Simon Spier, it's a little more complicated. He hasn't told his family or friends that he's gay, and he doesn't know the identity of the anonymous classmate that he's fallen for online.
