Verona Comics

From the author of Hot Dog Girl comes a “breathlessly sweet” (Kirkus Reviews) queer contemporary novel about two teens who fall in love in an indie comic book shop.

“You’ve Got Mail gets a queer YA twist.”—Teen Vogue

“A deep dive into first love while learning to manage significant mental health challenges.”—School Library Journal

Jubilee has it all together. She’s an elite cellist, and when she’s not working in her stepmom’s indie comic shop, she’s prepping for the biggest audition of her life.

Ridley is barely holding it together. His parents own the biggest comic-store chain in the country, and Ridley can’t stop disappointing them—that is, when they’re even paying attention.

They meet one fateful night at a comic convention prom, and the two can’t help falling for each other. Too bad their parents are at each other’s throats every chance they get, making a relationship between them nearly impossible . . . unless they manage to keep it a secret.

Then again, the feud between their families may be the least of their problems. As Ridley’s anxiety spirals, Jubilee tries to help but finds her focus torn between her fast-approaching audition and their intensifying relationship. What if love can’t conquer all? What if each of them needs more than the other can give?
