M. A. Y.

By Rowan Gilbert-Walsh

All recently dumped Jack Evans wants to do this summer is move on from his past. When his childhood best friend moves back into town, that goes from difficult to almost impossible as May's return dredges up guilty memories of how Jack abandoned her when she needed him most, doing nothing to help her when his own friends bullied her. Attempting to rebuild the friendship he destroyed years ago, get over his ex-girlfriend, find romance, and become a better brother, Jack spends the summer before freshman year struggling to handle all of his fragile relationships with family and with his peers. His own clueless, self-centred insensitivity and refusal to acknowledge his mistakes aren't making things any easier. M. A. Y. is a short novel (novella) for young adults/teenagers, focusing on friendship, forgiveness, and love in all its forms. It's a work of contemporary, realistic fiction and, at its heart, a coming of age story for Jack and for many of its characters.
