When 14-year-old "Jennifer" moves to a new town for a fresh start,
her mum insists she start looking and acting like a girl. But soon
she starts leading a double life, dressing in her brother's clothes
to go to the skate park. Here she gets tangled up in a crush
with a boy who thinks she's a boy and school friend who thinks
she's a girl.
“A warm, witty and touching romantic comedy”
- The Guardian
It isn't easy working out who you like when
you're still working out who you are. Jay
- sorry, Jennifer - and her
family move to a new town for a fresh start, after bullying at her
last school went too far.
Jennifer's mum insists that she
do things differently, so gone are her jeans,
T-shirts, skateboard and short hair. Jennifer want to keep her mum
happy, so she follows Mum's plan to start looking and acting like
a girl.
But it soon starts to wear on
Jennifer, and she starts leading a double life,
dressing in her brother's clothes to sneak out to go skateboarding
in the local park. That's where Jennifer feels most like herself,
where she can be Jay again.
But then Jay gets tangled up
in a crush with Alex, a closeted boy at the skate
park who thinks Jay is a boy. But is her friend Mina flirting
with Jay ... as a girl? Can Jay keep their different
worlds from colliding?
A romantic comedy
that shows readers that sometimes the basics can be quite complicated!
Hilarious and heartfelt, this novel
is perfect for fans of Heartstopper, Felix Ever
After, I Kissed Shara Wheeler and Hani and Ishu's
Guide to Fake Dating.
Ruby Clyde is a rising talent,
known for their comedy writing and acclaimed performances as
half of the comedy duo Shelf
Praise for Jay's Guide to Crushing It
"The word ‘heartwarming’
is overused when it comes to teen love but Clyde’s debut,
about a teenager who is forced to dress more like a girl when
they move to a new school, is genuinely that… This sweet
and tender romance will offer hope to all teenagers
who feel constrained by societal and parental expectations.”
