Leah on the Offbeat

<p><strong>In this sequel to the acclaimed <em>Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda</em>—soon to be a major motion picture, <em>Love, Simon</em>—we follow Simon’s BFF Leah as she grapples with changing friendships, first love, and senior year angst.</strong></p><p>When it comes to drumming, Leah Burke is usually on beat—but real life isn’t always so rhythmic.</p><p>She’s an anomaly in her friend group: the only child of a young, single mom, and her life is decidedly less privileged. She loves to draw but is too self-conscious to show it. And even though her mom knows she’s bisexual, she hasn’t mustered the courage to tell her friends—not even her openly gay BFF, Simon.</p><p>So Leah really doesn’t know what to do when her rock-solid friend group starts to fracture in unexpected ways. With prom and college on the horizon, tensions are running high.</p><p>It’s hard for Leah to strike the right note while the people she loves are fighting—especially when she realizes she might love one of them more than she ever intended.</p>
