Cal Jackson is in his final year of school, juggling helicopter parents, relentless A-Levels and the chaos of first love. Between the quest to fit in and the dizzying world of the internet, the lines between who he is and who he should be blur faster than a scroll on social media.
When a series of unlikely figures encourage him to stop hiding and start figuring out what really matters, Cal's journey shifts from surviving adolescence to embracing it. Can he survive in a world that is more interested in likes than him? And in the process, will he discover that sometimes the best way to fit in is to finally stand out?
Full of humour, heart and the occasional existential crisis, Pineapple Juice is an exploration of growing up in the digital age, where personal growth, love and self-acceptance are never as simple as they seem.
