Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli

4.8/5

Becky Albertalli's debut young adult novel follows Simon Spier, a closeted gay sixteen-year-old whose secret email correspondence with a classmate named Blue is weaponized against him by a blackmailer — a premise that earned the book the American Library Association's William C. Morris Award, a place on the National Book Award Longlist, and a celebrated film adaptation. Kirkus Reviews called it "funny, moving and emotionally wise," and the novel stands as one of the most decorated YA debuts of the past decade.
