    Summary

    Two years after the summer that changed it all, the story continues.

    This isn’t just about the aftermath of Wilson and Brando finally figuring it out, it’s about the rest of their friends, too. Cece and Mallory, buried in junior year at Rice, their lives more entangled than ever. Ella and Janice, holding down the chaos in Laredo.

    Halfway to Home is about what happens after the summer ends. When love is messy, when friendships shift, and when growing up means learning that home isn’t always a place. Sometimes, it’s the people you keep coming back to.

    Summary

    BASED OFF THE CHARACTERS IN CONAN GRAY'S "THIS SONG" MUSIC VIDEO!

    in which..

    Wilson, a quiet, art-obsessed boy returns to his dusty Texas hometown after a year away, still carrying the weight of all the things he never said to his best friend, who still calls him every week, still laughs like nothing's changed, and is the towns golden boy.

     

    or...

    Brando, a boy who's always been good at pretending starts to unravel when his best friend comes home looking older, softer, and somehow like every unsaid thing he's been trying not to think about, especially when he shows up wearing his jacket like it means something.

    Summary

    A shadow moves through his blurry vision. It stops at the foot of his bed.

    “Hi, Bob.” Yelena plops down on his comforter by his feet, afflicted. “So, quick question. How would you feel about sneaking out in the middle of the night to do things I cannot disclose but will go and do anyway, and also would you still like me if I was a worm?”

    The stream of words slip in one ear and exit out the other, barely registering as he flutters his eyes. He retains enough that his sleep-addled brain manages to provide one simple thought.

    Oh. This is what having a best friend is like.

    And then, out of nowhere, two other, more worrying simultaneous thoughts:

    ‘Why a worm of all things?’ and ‘I’m ruining this friendship immediately.’

    Or: RIP Bob Reynolds, Studio Killers sang it better.

    Summary

    Bob isn’t sure what sparks the idea in his mind. Maybe it’s the disappointment in Yelena’s gaze as she stares at the book in his lap. Maybe it’s the way he knows she’d do it for him if he asked.

    And maybe it's because he would do just about anything to keep that light inside her from dimming.

    “I could read it to you,” he offers.

    Or, Bob and Yelena, falling in love quietly from one page to the next.
