Are You Calvin Small?: A YA LGBT Romance

By J. Joseph Gillick

"I'm Calvin Small and I need help."

Fifteen-year-old Calvin Small is haunted by memories of his ex-boyfriend, struggling with his mental health, and determined to stay invisible in his new school. Armed with only a scrappy notebook and a sharp wit, Calvin keeps the world at arm's length - until he falls (literally) at the feet of Daniel, a musician with a song that just might save him.

Thrown into the chaos of school bullies, poetry slams, new friendships, and late-night breakdowns, Calvin finds himself caught between the past he's trying to forget and the future he might finally deserve. Will he let himself be truly seen?

Funny, fierce, and full of heart, Are You Calvin Small? is a coming-of-age LGBTQ+ romance about identity, connection, and the quiet moments that change everything.

Perfect for fans of Heartstopper, The Yearbook and The Perks of Being a Wallflower.
