About this ebook
“If you're looking for a novel to fill the To All The Boys I've Loved Before-shaped hole in your heart, this is the book for you.” —Camille Perri, author of When Katie Met Cassidy
How (Not) to Ask a Boy to Prom is a modern gender-bent young adult rom com from S. J. Goslee.
Nolan Grant is sixteen, gay, and very, very single.
He's never had a boyfriend, or even been kissed. It's not like Penn Valley is exactly brimming with prospects. Nolan plans to ride out the rest of his junior year drawing narwhals, working at the greenhouse, and avoiding anything that involves an ounce of school spirit.
Unfortunately for him, his adoptive big sister has other ideas. Ideas that involve too-tight pants, a baggie full of purple glitter, and worst of all: a Junior-Senior prom ticket.

I really wanted to read this, it just sounded so cute. I finally got my hands on it, and the first few chapters were very confusing. I'm so happy I kept reading. This book was amazing and so adorable! The romance was not who I thought it was going to be originally, but it's ok, I enjoyed it more. Yes this book was kinda predictable, but I loved it! The characters were wonderful, the romance great, and I laughed many times while reading this. This is now one of my favorite books! So glad I picked this up! Giving it 5 stars.
