The Edumacation of Jay Baker by Jay Clark

Jay Baker is having a very complex and interesting freshman year. His parents are finally having a “trial separation” after months of a noticeably failing marriage. He is caught between feelings for his best friend since grade school, Cameo, and his new dream girl, Caroline. On top of that he is constantly in trouble at school because of his former friend who is adamant on finding new ways to express his belief about Jay’s sexuality and Jay is fed up with it. It’s a great novel with many pop-culture references and many fun made-up words. Jay is a very relatable teen surrounded by a diverse slew of characters that help remind you that your life may not be too different from others’.
