[Simon & Schuster] Longlisted for the 2024 Story Prize From the author of Confidence and The Comedown comes a wildly imaginative story collection about queerness, neurodivergence, sexuality, and self-discovery. Frumkin’s latest book is a deliciously entertaining collection of five genre-defying stories that range from downright hilarious to brilliantly unhinged. Taken together, they celebrate a wide variety of human experiences. In the title story, a queer young adult with bipolar disorder drops out of college in a fog of depression, aimlessly drifting between maintaining their job at a fast food restaurant and dodging their mom’s texts. But when they fall in with a group of sex workers starring in BDSM films, they find radical freedom, love, and community. In other stories, we meet a psychiatrist whose meticulously-maintained life is upended by an Alex Trebek-like voice in his head, an e-girl celebrity who is being courted by a delusional fan, a young boy on the spectru

This is a great book. I have no problem with the book, but the publisher shipping them is completely careless in the way that they're packing them. . It's frustrating because 15 out of 23 books have some sort of cover or spine damage and people are paying hard earned money to get these books. They want them to be in good quality. I know that they send books to big bookstores that don't have these types of cover issues so I feel like it's just careless packing to small businesses.
