Award-winning author Dean Atta crafts a beautifully nuanced and revelatory story in verse about the exquisite highs and lows of first love and self-discovery. Fin seems fearless, and his confidence could just be infectious. Then Mack meets actor Finlay on set, and the world turns upside down again. It's awful to be so far away from Karim, and it's made worse by the fact that Karim can be so hard to read. But when Mack's father takes on a new directing project in Scotland, Mack has to move away, and he soon discovers how painful long-distance relationships can be. He has had a crush on Karim for as long as he can remember, and he can't believe it when gorgeous, popular Karim seems into him too. Mack is a hopeless romantic-likely a hazard of growing up on film sets thanks to his father's job.
