Publisher Description

From the #1 New York Times bestselling 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.

“this book was not good”
“A multi pov story about teenagers trying to understand their feelings for each other. Yeah, that’s what I thought this was going into it. For me, I think the characters weren’t interesting enough for me. Courtney (typical high school jock) complained about the same issues throughout the book and to me the best friend complicated a lot of what was going on. She would lead him on but obviously be attracted to her perceived straight friend who is actually bisexual but that factor remained ambiguous for too long in my opinion. This just wasn’t a slowburn I was into which is upsetting because I like this authors work, but this book just didn’t do it for me.”
