Description
Blue Bunger is a good kid going bad.
At 18, he's never kissed a girl. Never gotten in trouble. Never once stepped outside the lines.
Blue does exactly what's expected of him. In return for his troubles, the other kids in tiny Sopwood, North Carolina laugh at Blue. They make fun of him. They call him a loser, a grind, and a nerd.
Blue's overlooked and unappreciated. And then he finds a gun.
Now with a Glock-9 in his hand and his friends Jon and O.J. at his side, Blue is out to collect what's rightfully his: respect, popularity, girls.
Blue wants it all, and he'll stop at nothing to get it.
Written with pathos, humor, and unusual urgency, The Little Faggot Who Could is a contemporary coming-of-age drama that will resonate with anyone who ever felt like an outsider.
