Simon vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli
Simon, a not-so-openly gay teen, has been e-mailing with another teen known only as “Blue.” When Martin, a classmate, accidentally gains access to these emails, he blackmails Simon, threatening to reveal the correspondence – and more. Between being blackmailed and balancing relationship dynamics with friends, Simon’s school year has become really complicated.
