Readers will fall madly in love with Simon.' - Publishers Weekly (starred review) 'Are we absolutely certain that Becky Albertalli didn't just steal the diary of a hilariously observant teenage boy?

Plus don't miss Yes No Maybe So, Becky Albertalli's and Aisha Saeed's heartwarming and hilarious new novel, coming in 2020! Now change-averse Simon has to find a way to step out of his comfort zone before he's pushed out-without alienating his friends, compromising himself, or fumbling a shot at happiness with the most confusing, adorable guy he's never met. With some messy dynamics emerging in his once tight-knit group of friends and his email correspondence with Blue growing more flirtatious every day, Simon's junior year has suddenly gotten all kinds of complicated. Worse, the privacy of Blue, the pen name of the boy he's been emailing with, will be jeopardized.

Now Simon is actually being blackmailed: If he doesn't play wingman for class clown Martin, his sexual identity will become everyone's business.

But when an email falls into the wrong hands, his secret is at risk of being thrust into the spotlight. Sixteen-year-old and not-so-openly gay Simon Spier prefers to save his drama for the school musical. The beloved, award-winning novel is now a major motion picture, Love, Simon, starring 13 Reasons Why's Katherine Langford and Everything, Everything's Nick Robinson.
