Poster Boys

A jock, a try-hard and a space cadet. Highview Grammar will rue the day it put ‘History’ on the curriculum – because this unlikely trio is starting a revolution.

Edward Heffernan wants one thing: to get away from Nolan Li. If he cuts ties with the embarrassing Nolan, his reputation at Highview Grammar can only go up.

But when Nolan gets a note from the coolest kid in Year 9, Edward sees a chance to be popular. James Crombie is everything that Edward and Nolan are not, but it turns out this trio have one thing in common: they’re all sick of the culture, tradition and rules of their snobby 100-year-old high school. And they’re ready to do something about it.

A laugh-out-loud debut novel that mixes razor-sharp satire with a rollicking plot and a whole lot of heart. This is a YA coming-of-age caper about accepting yourself just as you are.

‘A confident coming-of-age story anchored by three distinct and authentic characters [that] explores masculinity, peer pressure and the unspoken rules that shape teenage behaviour. Poster Boys is a great read for fans of Randa Abdel-Fattah, Holden Sheppard and Will Kostakis’ BOOKS+PUBLISHING
