About this listen

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli, read by Michael Crouch.

Straight people should have to come out too. And the more awkward it is, the better.
Simon Spier is sixteen and trying to work out who he is - and what he's looking for. But when one of his emails to the very distracting Blue falls into the wrong hands, things get all kinds of complicated. Because, for Simon, falling for Blue is a big deal . . .
It's a holy freaking huge awesome deal.

Might not be the most original coming out story but it's cute and uplifting, and you can easily binge listen to it over the weekend. Lovely performance too, calming and pleasant voice.
