Your Life Starts Now

By Bill Konigsberg

Queer YA legend Bill Konigsberg returns to comedy (some romantic, some cringe) with the story of a queer boy running away to find the place that will accept him for who he is.

Ainsley does not feel he belongs in his conservative family or his conservative town. So, improbably, he decides to run away... on a cruise ship, in the hope that when he arrives in England, he'll be taken in. It's not the sturdiest of plans, but it's all he's got. And once he takes action and sneaks on board, he finds some willing allies... and, quite possibly, someone who'll love him as he is.
