Lambda Literary Award finalist for the best LGBT YA novel of 2018

A raw, powerful, but ultimately uplifting debut novel perfect for fans of Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe from debut author Angelo Surmelis.

Seventeen-year-old Evan Panos doesn't know where he fits in. His strict immigrant Greek mother refuses to see him as anything but a disappointment. His quiet, workaholic father is a staunch believer in avoiding any kind of conflict. And his best friend, Henry, has somehow become distractingly attractive over the summer.

Tired, isolated, scared--Evan finds that his only escape is to draw in an abandoned monastery that feels as lonely as he is. And yes, he kissed one guy over the summer. But it's Henry who's now proving to be irresistible. Henry, who suddenly seems interested in being more than friends. And it's Henry who makes him believe that he deserves more than his mother's harsh words and terrifying abuse.

But as things with Henry heat up, and his mother's abuse escalates, Evan has to decide how to find his voice in a world where he has survived so long by being silent.

This is a powerful and revelatory coming-of-age novel based on the author's own childhood, about a boy who learns to step into his light.

Not as expected.
Color: Black, Size: Large
I don’t usually do reviews but I need to for this. I’m a size medium. And everything I order in medium fits well. Not tight. But well. So I’m at first ordered this set medium size and the pants were ok. Not tight but just. The vest and jacket didn’t fit. Vest was 4 inches from closing and jacket 2 inches from closing. So I went base on the chart description from the images. Nope. So I said ok maybe I should size up. So I returned the medium set and order the large set. Well you guessed it. Still don’t fit. Now the pants were loose and long. The vest was 2 inches from closing and the jacket 1 inch from closing and the sleeves were very long. Of coarse because when you size up, everything sizes up. So no way I was going to get a XL. Not happy with this set. I don’t think the sizes are right. I know every body is different. But for me it didn’t work. I did find a different brand similar to this and I just got it today and wow. Pant. Jacket. Vest for very well just as it should on a medium. So this is why I’m doing a review for this. The quality is good. I would give it a 1 start but I’m not that mean. Anyways just letting you know what to expect. I’m not going to mention the other brand I found here. But just like I did my searching you can too. Bye.

Disappointed Customer
Color: Light Grey, Size: Small
It was to large but it was for his prom but we still had to use. Measure did add up to his exact size. Didn’t have time to send it back.
