Boys Can Be Weak

The debut novel by Owen Maudsley

“Welcome to hell, have you been here before? I have, and I got the overpriced
t-shirt to prove it, let me show you around.”

Richie starts this winter completely alone; his ex arrested and his old friends beating him up. The only person who he can talk to about it is his reflection.
But his reflection talks back.
Attempting to make a comeback to his popularity, Richie crashes a party of his former best friend. Afterwards he meets the staggeringly handsome Jacob.
Jacob is his sister's boyfriend. So why is he more interested in kissing Richie?

This novel is a fight against toxic masculinity. A story about self discovery and overcoming mental illness, about finding true friendships and shutting out the false ones. Perfect for anyone who needs to answer that burning question within themselves but is afraid of the supposed vulnerability of looking for answers.
