In this YA novel in verse from bestselling authors Kwame Alexander and Mary Rand Hess (Solo), which Kirkus called “lively, moving, and heartfelt” in a starred review, Noah and Walt just want to leave their geek days behind and find “cool,” but in the process discover a lot about first loves, friendship, and embracing life . . . as well as why Black Lives Matter is so important for all. Best friends Noah and Walt are far from popular, but Walt is convinced junior year is their year, and he has a plan that includes wooing the girls of their dreams and becoming amazing athletes. Never mind he and Noah failed to make their baseball team yet again, and Noah’s crush since third grade, Sam, has him firmly in the friend zone. While Walt focuses on his program of jazz, podcasts, batting cages, and a “Hug Life” mentality, Noah feels stuck in status quo … until he stumbles on a stash of old love letters. Each one contains words Noah’s always wanted to say to Sam, and he begins secretly creating artwork using the lines that speak his heart. But when his art becomes public, Noah has a decision to make: continue his life in the dugout and possibly lose the girl forever, or take a swing and finally speak out. At the same time, American flags are being left around town. While some think it’s a harmless prank and others see it as a form of protest, Noah can’t shake the feeling something bigger is happening to his community. Especially after he witnesses events that hint divides and prejudices run deeper than he realized. As the personal and social tensions increase around them, Noah and Walt must decide what is really important when it comes to love, friendship, sacrifice, and fate.

Reports to write, forms to fill, coffee to drink, leads to run down.Gus's life had been a tedium and boredom he'd grown comfortable with. One that he sought out after he'd come back from his tour of duty.That was before Melody, a contractor, more or less blew his life up as if it were a building packed full of c4. Then pranced around the ashes of it like it was the end of the world and she was conjuring up the end times herself.All while breaking in a rookie by the name of Vanessa into the PID. A gung-ho and eager young detective looking to prove herself.Then commandeering and recruiting a cleaning lady that turned out to be an Elven Dryad Sorceress who viewed killing people as little more than emptying the trash can.Gus had lived through it though. Made it work for him and had come out of it without too many new scars.An adventure that he hadn't wanted any part of that involved the Fed being blowed up, a stadium full of Paras all going into a feral rage, and breaking off a plot hatched by what felt like an organization that rivaled the Fed.Which apparently was all in a day's work, right up until they fired you for doing that work because you made the brass look bad.Without a job, more people relying on him than ever, and no direction, Gus is going to have to put on his big boy pants and figure something out. And soon.It's a good thing that he's a Boogieman.Because being an apex predator that made the entirety of the Paranormal world fear him was something he could fall back on. He could lean into it and make it work for him.He'd done it before when he was in the military.Made a name for himself out there in the bloody desert.He was The Hunter.A name that the Elven mothers now used to instill fear into misbehaving children. A name that grown men and women wouldn't discuss in polite company.Except, despite Gus's best intentions to get back to his stable non-life, he's going to get thrown right back into the fray. Whether he likes it or not, he's about to be handed a new problem that's going to mess up what little remained of his life.Unfortunately, his past was going to catch up to him and meet up with his future.Warning and minor spoiler: This novel contains graphic violence, undefined relationships/harem, unconventional opinions/beliefs, and a hero who is as tactful as a dog at a cat show. Read at your own risk.
