From the acclaimed author of Brooklyn, Burning comes Guyin Real Life, an achingly real and profoundly moving love story in the veinof Rainbow Rowell and John Green, about two Minnesota teens whose lives becomeintertwined through school, role-playing games, and a chance two-a.m. bikeaccident.
It is Labor Day weekend in Saint Paul, Minnesota, and boyand girl collide on a dark street at two thirty in the morning: Lesh, who wearsblack, listens to metal, and plays MMOs; Svetlana, who embroiders her skirts,listens to Björk and Berlioz, and dungeon masters her own RPG. They should pickthemselves up, continue on their way, and never talk to each other again.
But they don''t.
This is a story of the roles we all play-at school, at home,online, and with our friends-and the one person who might be able to show uswho we are underneath it all.
