{"product_id":"skater-boy-anthony-nerada-9798874616458","title":"Skater Boy","description":"In this YA pop punk debut about queer romance and destroying labels, a teen risks everything to write his own story. Perfect for fans of Sonora Reyes and Adib Khorram.Stonebridge High's resident bad boy, seventeen-year-old Wesley \"Big Mac\" Mackenzie, is failing senior year--thanks to his unchecked anger, rowdy friends, and a tendency to ditch his homework for skateboarding and a secret photography habit. So when his mom drags him to a production of The Nutcracker, Wes isn't interested at all . . . until he sees Tristan Monroe. Mr. Nutcracker himself.Wes knows he shouldn't like Tristan; after all, he's a ballet dancer, and Wes is as closeted as they come. But when they start spending time together, Wes can't seem to get Tristan out of his head. Driven by a new sense of purpose, Wes begins to think that--despite every authority figure telling him otherwise--maybe he can change for the better and graduate on time.As a falling out with his friends becomes inevitable, Wes realizes that being himself means taking a stand--if only he can blow up the bad-boy reputation he never wanted in the first place.From a debut author to watch, Skater Boy delivers a heart-wrenching, validating, and honest story about what it means to be gay in a world where you don't fit in.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anthony Nerada\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798874616458\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Recorded Books, Inc.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/23\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e CD","brand":"Anthony Nerada","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":46974745182463,"sku":"9798874616458","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a9fe9b40-a2ae-46b0-9d58-ffccea3c4b0c.jpg?v=1750875931","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/skater-boy-anthony-nerada-9798874616458","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
