Dear Manny

Written by Nic Stone

Narrated by Nic Stone and James Fouhey

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Dear Martin comes the thrilling final installment of the series, set in college and offering a new perspective on privilege, love, and our political climate.

Jared Peter Christensen is running for president (of the Junior Class Council at his university, but still). His platform is solid—built on increased equity and inclusion in all sectors of campus life—and he’s got a good chance of beating the deeply conservative business major he’s running against.

But when a transfer student enters the race, she calls Jared out for his big-talk/little-action way of moving. Dylan’s accusations make him question just how “woke” he really is. But what’s the right way to bring about change? As the campaign heats up, feelings are caught, and juicy secrets come to light, and Jared writes letters to his deceased friend Manny, hoping to make sense of his confusion. What’s a white boy to do when love and politics collide? Will he have to choose between his head and his heart?

★ "Stone has done a brilliant job with this memorable character-driven novel. . . . Dear Nic: congratulations on another great success."—Booklist, starred review

★ "A startlingly effective snapshot of cis white male frustration and growth."—School Library Journal, starred review
