The answer is always YES! Evan Panos just wanted to be loved as is. It seems like a no-brainer. Yet, being who you were born to be is still an issue for so many LGBTQ people. I came out years ago. It didn’t go well, but eventually I found a family of people that saw me (and accepted me) as my whole self. Coming out is hard. It shouldn’t be. No one should HAVE to come out. We should all just *BE* yet we do. If you’re struggling to step into the light as your true self, know that there will be a giant community of people who will love you. As is. They will love you so hard, so fully and without any reservations. For those that have, congratulations and keep being your own hero. And for the straight friends, family, allies that support us—-Thank You doesn’t seem like enough, but that’s all I’ve got right now. It’s a BIG thank you! Your love and support mean so much. ❤️🏳️‍🌈#nationalcomingoutday #dontblendin #thedangerousartofblendingin #epicreads #representationmatters #balzerandbray #evanpanos #evanandhenry #instagay #gaymanreading #lgbtqbooks #readya #yalit #lgbtbooks #writersofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/Boy7jNynLf1/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=uhdouiwdo8kp

Happy Monday. This weekend seems like a dream. Like a wonderful, anxious, exciting, lovely dream. I geekishly fanboyed over authors I was brave enough to approach, admired others from afar that I was too nervous to go up to, and spent time with incredible friends who always raise the talent bar. Meeting readers, fellow book lovers and educators that are changing the world was beyond inspiring and I won’t forget you, or your stories. Thank you for having me @yallwest ❤️💛💙💜🌈📚🍩 BTW, #thedangerousartofblendingin mug courtesy of the awesome @adriana_mather #dontblendin #yallwest #bookstagram #readya #yalit #representationmatters #epicreads #lgbtgia #lgbt #lgbtqbooks #evanandhenry (at Los Angeles, California)

@bookpilesandbibliophiles Thank you for this stunning, fun & bright photo! I agree, I love this cover as well. @alison2219 and the whole brilliant design team @balzerandbray @harpercollinsus did an incredible job! 💜📚🌈🍩#dontblendin #thedangerousartofblendingin #evanandhenry #Repost @bookpilesandbibliophiles with @get_repost ・・・ HELLO INSTAGRAM! After a brief (ahem, long and unplanned) hiatus, I'm back and ready with a whole bunch of photos ready to go. I'm so excited to get started on this because firstly, how cute is the cover, and secondly, how cute is the blurb? Who's read it?!

@richwithbooks Thank you for reading #thedangerousartofblendingin for loving #yalit AND for supporting diverse storytelling! 💜💛❤️💙📚#dontblendin #evanandhenry #epicreads #lgbtqbooks #tellyourstory #Repost @richwithbooks with @get_repost ・・・ A wonderful debut! Thank you @angelo_surmelis for sending me my copy 💛. . . The Dangerous Art of Blending In is a YA novel with one simple message, “never blend in”. I loved all of Evan’s friends in this book. They all had unique personalities and played a different but important role in his life. . . Evan, a young 17 year old, from an orthodox Greek family, tries to juggle both his life at home and at school. His mother has very high expectations from him and it seems he can never be a good son. He wants to be someone his mother loves but he knows he is someone his mother despises. . . Evan tries to compartmentalize his life. Eventually it’s too much. His whole life falls apart and he can no longer be who everyone wants or needs him to be. But, Evan’s life needs to fall apart to truly come together. . . ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, I really enjoyed The Dangerous Art of Blending In. This book might not be for everyone. There’s some serious physical and emotional abuse in this book. The Dangerous Art of Blending In is now available everywhere books are sold! . . . . #rwbreview #bookworm #bookstagram #youngadultbooks #ireadya #avaliablenow #lgbtreads #lgbtbooks #bookreview #bookoftheday

You know it’s serious when Evan doesn’t take a bite of his doughnut.
