NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From the New York Times bestselling author of Dear Martin comes the thrilling final installment of the series, set in college. Jared (white, Justyce's roommate, woke) is running for Junior class president. With his antiracism platform, he's a shoo-in. But he's up against the new girl, Dylan. Will Jared have to choose between his head and his heart?
Jared Peter Christensen is running for president (of the Junior Class Council at his university, but still). His platform is solid—built on increased equity and inclusion in all sectors of campus life—and he’s got a good chance of beating the deeply conservative business major he’s running against.
But then a transfer student enters the race and calls Jared out for his big-talk/little-action way of moving. But what’s the right way to bring about change? As the campaign heats up, feelings are caught, and juicy secrets come to light, and Jared writes letters to his deceased friend Manny, hoping to make sense of his confusion. What’s a white boy to do when love and politics collide?
New York Times bestselling author Nic Stone writes from a new perspective in this exciting final chapter of the Dear Martin series that examines privilege, love, and our political climate.

“Stone’s final entry in the Dear Martin trilogy is made more powerful with this compelling performance by James Fouhey…Fouhey delivers Jared’s range of emotions in scenes relating to a smear campaign lodged against him, his tension during a school debate, his reaction to his father’s disappointment in him, and an accusation of theft against Dylan. Stone adds clarity by inserting comments in three places within the production. Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award.”
