While the start of Jack’s story is life-changing choice that he’s forced into by someone he thought he could trust, the life and person he becomes is a joyful and heartwarming journey where queerness is celebrated through his budding relationship with JV soccer captain and personal math tutor Damon. Jack Martin is only 16 years old when his ex-boyfriend ruthlessly outs him, and must face the daunting choice of leaving his hometown to move in with his older brother in San Francisco or to stay and be sent to a conversion camp.
Owen Lach’s latest YA book Jack’s On Fire is a beautiful whirlwind of a young man coming to terms with his newly-outed sexuality as he stumbles into himself, along the way developing a loving relationship and making true friendships.
