From the New York Times bestselling author of Every Day, this is a queer love story set against the backdrop of the 2024 presidential election, in a reimagining of David Levithan's 2004 novel Wide Awake. When David Levithan published Wide Awake in 2004, he set it in an imagined 2024, where a gay Jewish man had just been elected president of the United States, until a governor decides that some election results in his state are invalid, awarding crucial votes to the other candidate and his fellow party member. What follows is the story of teens Jimmy and Duncan as they explore their relationship, their politics, and their country. In Wide Awake Now, David Levithan is flipping the script and rewriting Jimmy and Duncan's story in the real 2024, rather than his imagined version. This is a protest novel for today. Once again, David Levithan proves the critical importance of standing up for what you believe in and the cost of apathy in today's political climate.

Snart pratar hela stan om ifall bokens huvudpersoner är gay eller inte och Donovans mamma försöker få den borttagen från undervisningen -- men Donovan och hans klasskamrater tänker kämpa för sin bok! Samtidigt utspelar sig en kärlekshistoria mellan Gideon, som är bästa vän med sin sköldpadda, och Roberto som börjar i hans klass, varvat med kapitel från boken Äventyrarna. Och med en fingertoppskänsla som bara David Levithan besitter knyts alla trådar ihop i slutet.En förbjuden bok är en berättelse om bannlysta böcker och om att hitta modet att stå upp för det som är rätt.David Levithan har skrivit en mängd banbrytande ungdomsböcker, varav den mest uppmärksammade är Jag, En, som också filmatiserats.

A bold, timely novel about speaking up and coming out as parents lobby to ban a beloved book from the school curriculum by New York Times-bestselling author David Levithan. When Donovan left his copy of The Adventurers on the kitchen counter, he didn't think his mom would read it--much less have a problem with it. It's just an adventure novel about two characters trying to stop an evil genius. . . right? But soon the entire town is freaking out about whether the book's main characters are gay, Donovan's mom is trying to get the book removed from the school curriculum, and Donovan is caught in the middle. Donovan doesn't really know if the two boys fall in love at the end or not--but he does know this: even if they do, it shouldn't matter. The book should not be banned from school. Interweaving three connected storylines, David Levithan delivers a bold, fun, and timely story about taking action, being brave, and standing up for what's right.
