About this item
In 24 Seconds, #1 New York Times bestselling author Jason Reynolds presents a hilarious and heartfelt coming-of-age tale through the eyes of Neon, a teenage boy on the brink of a life-changing moment.
The story unfolds in a stream-of-consciousness format as Neon reflects on his journey with Aria, the girl who has captured his heart. From their awkward first encounter—when a dog chased him around a church parking lot—to the tender conversations about intimacy with his dad, Neon navigates the ups and downs of young love.
As the countdown progresses—twenty-four months ago, weeks, days, and now, just seconds—Neon is confronted with the reality of what it means to be in a relationship. With the looming prospect of a first intimate encounter, he finds himself locked in Aria’s bathroom, battling insecurities and the overwhelming pressure of expectations.
Armed with chicken tenders instead of roses, Neon struggles to silence the voices in his head that threaten to derail his confidence. As he grapples with the realities of love, intimacy, and vulnerability, Neon must learn to embrace the moment and let go of the fears holding him back.
