Two queer boys face their last day together with an epic journey through Baltimore in this magnetic YA debut about love between friends by celebrated cultural critic and bestselling Here For It author R. Eric Thomas. With junior year starting in the fall, Harrison feels like he's on the precipice of, well, everything. Standardized testing, college, and the terrifying unknowns and looming pressures of adulthood after that-it's like the future wants to eat him alive. Which is why Harrison is grateful that he and his best friend Linus will face these things together. But at the end of a shift at their summer job, Linus invites Harrison to their special spot at Baltimore Cemetery to deliver devastating news he's been holding in-he's moving out of state at the end of the week. In an act of major deflection-and partially inspired by a cheesy movie-night pick by his Dad-Harrison decides to distract his mind and heart by planning a send-off à la Ferris Bueller's Day Off that's worthy of his favorite person. If they won't be having all the life-expanding experiences they thought they would, Harrison will squeeze them all into their last day. They end up on a mini road trip, their first Pride parade, and a rooftop tea dance, all while keeping their respective parents, who track them on a family location app, off their trail. Harrison and Linus make a pact to do all the things-big and small-they've been too scared to do. But nothing feels scarier than saying goodbye to someone you love.
