When a bisexual teen moves from Palo Alto to Provo, he goes back in the closet because all the happy Mormons are total dicks if you cross them (cross = mind your own business living your best gay life in a town they dominate). And then...he falls in love with the bishop's son, who has a lot to unpack.
What's such a bummer about this book is it seems that there's no way for a kid who loves and believes in Mormonism to stay in the church if he wants to love who he loves. You can be gay, but you can't do gay.
It's a long will-they-or-won't-they, but not too long!
