Jules is nearing his high school graduation, and he has always had a plan for his life to break free to be his own authentic self. All Jules wants is to get away from his stifling home life in Corpus Christi, Texas, and get into UCLA.
Everything comes crashing down in one careless tweet where Jules has just come out of the closet unintentionally, and Jules has to prepare himself to face his friends and family. He is left to pick up the pieces of his decision and figure out how he will navigate being openly queer, but he soon realizes that now he can be his true self.
Things get better when he meets Mat from Los Angeles through Twitter, who soon becomes his full-blown Twitter crush. Jules feels like he could tell Mat anything, and he makes Jules feel less alone about coming out for the first time. When one of Jules greatest fears happens after his accidental coming out, all he wants to do is be with Mat, but he is fifteen hundred miles away.
Jules must decide how to control his life and figure out how he will move forward to live the life he has always envisioned for himself.
This is a refreshing read where I fell in love with Jules and his great big beating heart that made me just want to give him a big abrazo! Jules reminds all of us that life is sweeter when you go after the life of your dreams. Not to mention, this book brought my obsession with Selena back with a vengeance, and I am not mad about it!
