LAUNCH EVENT for This Is Why They Hate Us by AARON H. ACEVES
By Books of Wonder
A Summer YA Love Story for the Chaotic LGBTQ+ Teen in All of Us!
Join us for the HYBRID LAUNCH of This Is Why They Hate Us
by AARON H. ACEVES, in discussion with BRIAN D. KENNEDY!
Enrique “Quique” Luna has one goal this summer — get over his crush on Saleem Kanazi by pursuing his other romantic prospects.
Never mind that he’s only out to his best friend, Fabiola.
Never mind that he has absolutely zero game.
And definitely forget the fact that good and kind and, not to mention, beautiful Saleem is leaving L.A. for the summer to meet a girl his parents are trying to set him up with.
Luckily, Quique’s prospects are each intriguing in their own ways. There’s stoner-jock Tyler Montana, who might be just as interested in Fabiola as he is in Quique; straight-laced senior class president, Ziggy Jackson; and Manny Zuniga, who keeps looking at Quique like he’s carne asada fresh off the grill. With all these choices, Quique is sure to forget about Saleem in no time.
(Right?)
