About this ebook

In this comedy-of-errors story about bad allyship gone good, a teenager sets out to support her newly out best friend . . . but ends up going viral for the worst reasons.

“This sweet-natured deconstruction of the straight savior narrative is smart, funny, and revealing.”—Vox

“Recommend to fans of John Green and David Levithan.”—School Library Journal

“Thorne writes engagingly about complicated relationships, the importance of communication in understanding others’ perspectives, and the blindness of privilege.”—VOYA

Every story needs a hero. Sometimes, it’s just not you.

When her best friend Hannah comes out the day before junior year starts, Daisy is all set to let her ally flag fly. Before you can spell LGBTQIA, she’s leading the charge to end their school’s antiquated ban on same-sex dates at dances—starting with homecoming. And if people assume Daisy herself is gay? Meh, so what. It’s all for Hannah, right? It’s all for the cause.

What Daisy doesn’t expect is that “the cause” will blow up—thanks to Adam, the cute college journalist whose interview with Daisy for his university newspaper goes viral, catching fire in the national media. With the story spinning out of control, protesters gathering, Hannah left in the dust of Daisy’s good intentions, and Daisy’s attraction to Adam practically written in lights, Daisy finds herself caught between her bold plans, her bad decisions, and her big fat mouth.
