Its bold, intriguing title and cover grab readers “Date Me, Bryson Keller is a gloriously satisfying gay teen coming-of- age love story with characters you’ll think about long after you put immediately. It is full of kid-endorsed advice for those who prefer not the book down (and you won’t want to put it down until you’ve read to read but are forced to. This wildly appealing gem is great fun—and every word — I didn’t). The narrator, the closeted, gay, mixed-race a reminder that kids become eager readers one terrific book at a Kai Sheridan, impulsively takes advantage of a dare to ask out ultra- time. I Hate Reading is the perfect start.” popular Bryson Keller, who has been dared to spend each week dating —Christopher Rose, the first person who asks him out on Monday morning.

Highly recommended.” —Carol Schneck Varner, Schuler Books, Okemos, MI Based on reporting from hundreds of independent bookstores across America. Copyright American Booksellers Association.
