Not not normal / Peter E. Fenton.

Fenton, Peter, (author.).

Summary:

"Ever since his mother died, Jordan's life has been organized, precise, and neat. There is a place for everything, except for chaos, and what is love if not chaos? It's a new school year, and Jordan is tired of being called a freak. When a charismatic new student, Nathan, takes the school by storm and rallies against the rules and social norms, Jordan is disturbed, uncomfortable and enamored with the new kid. Like an unapologetic knight in shining armor, Nathan takes to defending Jordan from bullies and supporting him in breaking out of his shell. When an English class project gives Jordan the chance to share his writing with the school and his feelings for Nathan, he seizes on the opportunity. Faced with stage fright and spotlight, Nathan encourages Jordan to shine and let his writing speak for itself. As Jordan's confidence and acceptance of himself and his father's shared grief gradually grows, so do his feelings for Nathan. Will Jordan allow himself to experience the love Nathan is offering him?"-- Provided by publisher.
