YA gay romance with a cast of characters that span a range of ethnicities, races, personalities - this first impression seems to have a little bit of everything for everyone. The Ferris Bueller premise was intriguing as a hook, but the first impression (first 50 pages) really only introduced the main characters and the news of Linus' move. The story line moved very slowly and with a lot of angst. Unfortunately it didn't really hold my interest and I'll have to pass on this. Perhaps this picks up in the latter half of the story?
