Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda Special Edition - Hardcover

Sixteen-year-old and not-so-openly gay Simon Spier prefers to save his drama for the school musical. But when an email falls into the wrong hands, his secret is at risk of being thrust into the spotlight. Now Simon is actually being blackmailed: If he doesn’t play wingman for class clown Martin, his sexual identity will become everyone’s business. Worse, the privacy of Blue, the pen name of the boy he’s been emailing with, will be jeopardized.

With some messy dynamics emerging in his once tight-knit group of friends and his email correspondence with Blue growing more flirtatious every day, Simon’s junior year has suddenly gotten all kinds of complicated. Now change-averse Simon has to find a way to step out of his comfort zone before he’s pushed out—without alienating his friends, compromising himself, or fumbling a shot at happiness with the most confusing, adorable guy he’s never met.

This special edition of Becky Albertalli’s acclaimed, award-winning debut novel contains exclusive bonus material, including the very first Simon-Blue emails, backstage photos from the Simon movie set, a conversation with the author, and excerpts from The Upside of Unrequited and Leah on the Offbeat.
