" Only Mostly Devastated is the kind of book I wish existed when my kids were younger--a charming, funny, laugh-out-loud teen romance that reminds all readers love comes in a multitude of flavors, and they are ALL sweet." --Jodi Picoult, New York Times -bestselling author of Small Great Things and A Spark of Light "A delightful, heartwarming, heartrending story about family, love, friendship, and living your most authentic life. I couldn't put it down." -- New York Times -bestselling author Sandhya Menon "Summer lovin' gets a Southern twist in this addicting coming-of-age gay romance. Sweet and tart in equal measure.... Poignant, piquant, and not to be missed." -- Kirkus "Sweet and earnest.... A worthwhile romance for any collection." -- Booklist "Gonzales turns in a witty, smart, credible, and irreverent contemporary romance that handles all these elements skillfully and with heart.... The power of this fun Grease retelling is that it normalizes the spectrum of sexual orientations. Recommended for all teens." -- School Library Journal "Heartfelt and charming, Only Mostly Devastated is a touching and delightful YA contemporary romance. Highly recommend for fans of Nicola Yoon, Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda , and Sick Kids In Love ." -- YA Books Central "A delight! This heartfelt, queer update on Grease features a diverse cast of teen characters and a charmingly earnest protagonist in Ollie. Gonzales handily balances lively banter with somber issues, and the compelling will they/won't they storyline warmly illustrates a timeless truth: love is love is love." --Jenn Bennett, author of Alex, Approximately "There can never be enough queer stories about romance--and when they are told with this much heart, humor and a swoon worthy story line, you never want them to end." --Angelo Surmelis, author of The Dangerous Art of Blending In "Irresistibly cute, hilariously sweet, this book warmed my heart with its characters and love story" --Mason Deaver, author of the national bestseller I Wish You All the Best "Oh my gosh, Only Mostly Devastated is SO GREAT! Funny and sweet and super gay, fans of Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda are going to be all over it.

Ancrum, author of The Wicker King "Wry but earnest, sweet but irreverent, heartbreaking but hopeful. With wit and authenticity, Only Mostly Devastated tells the story of what happens to a summer romance after summer is over. You'll be rooting for Ollie and his messy, wonderful friends from the first page to the last." --Hannah Capin, author of The Dead Queens Club and Foul Is Fair "With razor-sharp wit, masterful comedic timing, and heaps of heart, these hilarious, lovable, heartbreakingly real characters make Only Mostly Devastated an instant hit and Sophie Gonzales one YA author to watch." --Julia Lynn Rubin, author of Burro Hills "Narrator Ollie is deeply sympathetic....

Synopsis
Ollie never expected his summer fling with unbearably sweet Will to survive after vacation, but when his family decides to stay in North Carolina, he lets himself hope. Those hopes are crushed when he learns that the guy he knew from summer isn't the same one attending Collinswood High., Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda meets Clueless in this boy-meets-boy spin on Grease A 2021 Rainbow Book List Selection A 2021 Southern Book Prize finalist A Goodreads Choice Awards 2020 finalist A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection An Indie Next Pick " Only Mostly Devastated is the kind of book I wish existed when my kids were younger--a charming, funny, laugh-out-loud teen romance that reminds all readers love comes in a multitude of flavors, and they are ALL sweet." --Jodi Picoult, New York Times -bestselling author of Small Great Things and A Spark of Light "A delightful, heartwarming, heartrending story about family, love, friendship, and living your most authentic life. I couldn't put it down." -- New York Times -bestselling author Sandhya Menon Will Tavares is the dream summer fling--he's fun, affectionate, kind--but just when Ollie thinks he's found his Happily Ever After, summer vacation ends and Will stops texting Ollie back. Now Ollie is one prince short of his fairytale ending, and to complicate the fairytale further, a family emergency sees Ollie uprooted and enrolled at a new school across the country. Which he minds a little less when he realizes it's the same school Will goes to...except Ollie finds that the sweet, comfortably queer guy he knew from summer isn't the same one attending Collinswood High. This Will is a class clown, closeted--and, to be honest, a bit of a jerk. Ollie has no intention of pining after a guy who clearly isn't ready for a relationship, especially since this new, bro-y jock version of Will seems to go from hot to cold every other week. But then Will starts "coincidentally" popping up in every area of Ollie's life, from music class to the lunch table, and Ollie finds his resolve weakening. The last time he gave Will his heart, Will handed it back to him trampled and battered. Ollie would have to be an idiot to trust him with it again. Right?
