YA
Dweeby Tyler Miller got caught spray-painting his school. After a summer of outdoor labor, Tyler starts his senior year beefy and dangerous-looking. Tyler's reputation as a "criminal" causes all fingers to point to him when naked photos of his fantasy girl surface. While some stereotypes persist, other complex supporting characters add dimension to Tyler's journey, at once personal and representational.
