FML is a thoughtful coming-of-age story about a high school senior exploring identity, friendship, and possibility. The book uses casual profanity and contains references to alcohol and sexual situations, making it best suited for older teens. While the tone is generally humorous and reflective rather than graphic, the mature themes warrant a teen audience.
At a party near the end of senior year, seventeen-year-old Simon Cross imagines his life with and without Cassie, the girl he has yearned for since they were freshman, and begins to discover the unpredictable wonders of life his best friends, Ben and Coop, have urged him to explore.At a party near the end of senior year, seventeen-year-old Simon Cross imagines his life with and without Cassie, the girl he has yearned for since they were freshman, and begins to discover the unpredictable wonders of life his best friends, Ben and Coop, have urged him to explore.
