The Astonishing Adventures of Fanboy and Goth Girl

Pan Macmillan, 2006. Some shelfwear and imprints on front jacket, may have previous owner's details on front endpaper, some foxing.

The brainy outcast known as Fanboy has never had it good, but lately his sophomore year is turning out to be its own special hell. But Fanboy has a secret: a graphic novel he's been working on without telling anyone about it, a graphic novel that he is convinced will lead to publication, fame, and a way out of the crappy little town he lives in and the bullies that make it all hell for him. Just when he thinks he's doomed to be alone, Fanboy meets Kyra, aka Goth Girl, an outrageous, cynical girl who shares Fanboy's love of comics as well as his hatred for jocks and bullies. Fanboy can't resist someone who actually seems to understand him. But Kyra has secrets, too. And they could lead Fanboy to his dreams...or down a path into his own darkness.
