As Far As You'll Take Me

From the break-out author of The Gravity of Us comes a heartfelt coming-of-age story about finding your chosen people. Perfect for fans of Becky Albertalli Marty arrives in London with nothing but his oboe and some savings from his summer job; but he's excited to start his new life--where he's no longer the closeted; shy kid who slips under the radar and is free to explore his sexuality without his parents' disapproval. From the outside; Marty's life looks like a perfect fantasy: in the span of a few weeks; he's made new friends; he's getting closer with his first ever boyfriend; and he's even traveling around Europe. But Marty knows he can't keep up the facade. He hasn't spoken to his parents since he arrived; he's tearing through his meager savings; his homesickness and anxiety are getting worse and worse; and he hasn't even come close to landing the job of his dreams. Will Marty be able to find a place that feels like home?
