Title: Openly Straight
Author: Bill Konigsberg
Plot Outline: Rafe, a high school junior who has been openly gay since eighth grade, decides to keep his sexuality a secret when he transfers to an all-boys' private school in Massachusetts, hoping to be known as just "Rafe" and not "the gay kid". He thrives in his new, label-free environment and excels in soccer, making new friends. However, his carefully constructed new identity is challenged when he falls in love with his best friend, Ben, who is straight and unaware of Rafe's sexuality, leading Rafe to grapple with honesty and self-acceptance.
