About this listen
From the number one New York Times best-selling author of Dear Martin comes an honest and touching depiction of friendship, first love, and everything in between. Perfect for fans of Love, Simon and What If It's Us.
Courtney Cooper and Jupiter Sanchez (Coop & Jupe!) have been next-door neighbors and best friends since they were seven years old. She's his partner in crime and other half. But lately, Cooper can't ignore he might want something more than friendship from Jupiter.
When Rae Chin moves to town she can't believe how lucky she is to find Coop and Jupe. Being the new kid is usually synonymous with pariah, but around these two, she finally feels like she belongs. She's so grateful she wants to kiss him...and her.
Jupiter has always liked girls. But when Rae starts dating Cooper, Jupe realizes that the only girl she ever really imagined by his side was her.
One story. Three sides. No easy answers.

Story
Since Shelbi enrolled at Windward Academy as a senior and won’t be there very long, she hasn’t bothered making friends. What her classmates don’t know about her can’t be used to hurt her—you know, like it did at her last school. Andy Criddle’s had far too much to drink. Again. Which is bad. And things are about to get worse. When Shelbi sees Andy at his lowest, she can relate. So she doesn’t resist reaching out. And there’s no doubt their connection has them both seeing stars . . . but the closer they get, the more the past threatens to pull their universes apart.

Joanna Gordon has been out and proud for years, but when her popular radio evangelist father remarries and decides to move all three of them from Atlanta to the more conservative Rome, Georgia, he asks Jo to do the impossible: to lie low for the rest of her senior year. And Jo reluctantly agrees. Although it is (mostly) much easier for Jo to fit in as a straight girl, things get complicated when she meets Mary Carlson, the oh-so-tempting sister of her new friend at school. But Jo couldn't possibly think of breaking her promise to her dad.

Critic reviews
“For fans of authors who dig complex relationships, like Shannon M. Parker, Ashley Woodfolk and Misa Sugiura.” (Paste Magazine)
"Stone challenges stereotypical notions of what it means to be straight, bisexual, or gay, showing how sexual identities and desires can be as complicated as the individual human brain." (Publishers Weekly)
"Teens, librarians and teachers alike will find this book a godsend.... Vivid and powerful." (Booklist)
The first reader was by far the very best. He held my interest the entire time. The third reader was also well spoken.

First, I would recommend the audible version for anyone. I typically have issues with audiobooks because I love to read. I get lost but the way this book reads as if you were hosting a discussion with the three sides of the story and I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the conversations between the characters. It solidified the feeling of being involved in a conversation, rather than listening to someone else.
Ms. Stone does a fantastic job of capturing the essence of the teenage characters without it going overboard. I immediately recommended the book to my 17-year-old daughter. I found myself quietly sniffling through book three and although I felt foolish about it, I have spent some time reflecting why, with my most prominent answer feeling at some loss that this book did not exist twenty years ago when I was trying to explain myself to anyone, including myself.
The diversity in her characters was so refreshing and I admittedly haven't paid much attention to Young Adult books since before I was eligible to be outside of the genre. The fact alone that the characters were able to exist within their obvious differences without making it the staple for every conversation and action was amazing. When I was 17 I remember the only character I could really try to identify with being set in a background of the antebellum south or was looked at with more ridicule and disgust than praise let alone any resemblance of normalcy. These characters, Coop, Jupiter, and Rae, even Golly, and Briton (Sp?) were fantastic. The conversations were realistic and the characters are written in a way that you know they are actually thinking, feeling human beings who are discovering themselves and the underlying message that all of this is normal, that it's ok to explore and feelings alone can cause their own range of emotions, with no assistance from an outside source.
I enjoyed this book with all of me, from the heated conversations to the musical references regarding one of the greatest bands that will ever be.
Nic Stone is an amazing author, and I look forward to reading more of her books and passing them on to my children and anyone else I think may benefit. I personally feel that this story would benefit anyone who has ever had to question their own motives and desires or tried to understand someone else who has. It is a boon to her readers that she exists. Her stories understand their complexities, and her guidance I am sure will lift a few burdens off of their shoulders.
