    Summary

    McKinley claps his hands together. “I just – I’m going to say it,” his expression is pinched, as though he’s holding his breath. “Elder Price. I’ve been having… gay thoughts. About you.”

    Oh. Oh? Oh. Wow.

    Kevin swallows. “Sorry?”

    McKinley unclasps his hands, throws them up. “I know. I’m so sorry, I didn’t want to–” he’s making Kevin think of a wrung-out dishcloth. “Keep it from you any longer, I just felt so awful.” His face has gone red and blotchy, two twin points of pink high on his cheeks like a doll. “I thought you outta know. I know that we’re – moving away from the traditional and my SSA probably isn’t the end of the world but I felt terrible not telling you. Especially since we’re – I’d like to think we’re friends – and it’s a stressful position to put you in, and unfair, really, and don’t feel obliged to say anything at all, I just had to get it off my chest.”

    Or: falling in love is sometimes a marathon, not a sprint.

    Summary

    In this world, Grace Sterling is the most popular girl at Hatchetfield High, and Max Verity is its biggest prude; Richie Lipschitz is the quarterback of the football team, and Ruth Fleming is the cheer captain; Peter Spankoffski is the mayor's son, and Stephanie Lauter is a nobody.
    This is not the Hatchetfield you've come to expect. Everything feels ever so slightly off. As it's said, one single event can lead to a ripple effect, spreading out across time and leading to unintended changes... and consequences.
    But, this is still Hatchetfield. And things are bound to go wrong, even if it starts with something as innocuous as a petty high school rumor. Where it'll end up comes down to two best friends, a Sterling's worst enemy, and an unassuming black book.
