X-WR-CALDESC:Guilty Pleasures Book Club\n\nMost Ardently by Gabe Cole Novoa
 \n\nLondon\, 1812. Oliver Bennet feels trapped. Not just by the endless co
 rsets\, petticoats and skirts he's forced to wear on a daily basis\, but a
 lso by society's expectations. The world―and the vast majority of his fami
 ly and friends―think Oliver is a girl named Elizabeth. He is therefore exp
 ected to mingle at balls wearing a pretty dress\, entertain suitors regard
 less of his interest in them\, and ultimately become someone's wife.\n\nBu
 t Oliver can't bear the thought of such a fate. He finds solace in the few
  times he can sneak out of his family's home and explore the city rightful
 ly dressed as a young gentleman. It's during one such excursion when Olive
 r becomes acquainted with Darcy\, a sulky young man who had been rude to '
 Elizabeth' at a recent social function. But in the comfort of being out of
  the public eye\, Oliver comes to find that Darcy is actually a sweet\, in
 telligent boy with a warm heart. And not to mention incredibly attractive.
 \n\nAs Oliver is able to spend more time as his true self\, often with Dar
 cy\, part of him dares begin to hope that his dream of love and life as a 
 man could be possible. But suitors are growing bolder―and even threatening
 ―and his mother is growing more desperate to see him settled into an engag
 ement. Oliver will have to choose: Settle for safety\, security\, and a li
 fe of pretending to be something he's not\, or risk it all for a slim chan
 ce at freedom\, love\, and a life that can be truly\, honestly his own.\n
 \nThis bittersweet Pride & Prejudice remix follows a trans boy yearning fo
 r the freedom to live openly\, centering queerness in a well-known story o
 f longing and subverting society’s patriarchal and cisheteronormative expe
 ctations.\n\n\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\n\nAre you:\n• An adult who enjoys reading Young Adu
 lt novels?\n• A parent who would like some “me time” to socialize with oth
 er adults while discussing a digestible book?\n• A parent\, guardian\, or

 or the Guilty Pleasures Book Club\, where we will meet in a relaxed enviro
