YA
There are two novels in one in this gimmicky but sweet "flip the book" about gay teen Russ and bisexual Min (Geography Club). While acting as extras in a zombie movie, they deal with closeted soulmates, skeezy ex-boyfriends, intolerant parents, and long-distance relationships. As with his previous books, Hartinger's character development is top-notch and humor comfortably coexists with pathos.
