Jason Reynolds has done it again!… Fresh from start to finish… This is what it could be, should be, if only we were all as lucky as Aria. Girls (and everyone) wait for your Neon!—Judy Blume, author of Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret. and Forever...Jason Reynolds is a New York Times bestselling author and one of the most prominent voices in contemporary young people’s literature. We are honored to host him for Twenty-Four Seconds from Now…: A Love Story, an unfiltered and undeniably sweet stream-of-consciousness story about a teen boy on the cusp of experiencing a huge first. Twenty-four months ago: Neon gets chased by a dog all around the parking lot of a church. Not his finest moment. And definitely one he would have loved to forget if it weren’t for the dog’s owner, Aria. Dressed in sweats, a t-shirt, hair in a ponytail. Aria. Way more than fine. Twenty-four weeks ago: Neon’s dad insists on talking to him about tenderness and intimacy. Neon and Aria are definitely in love, and while they haven’t taken that next big step…yet, they’ve started talking about…that. Twenty-four days ago: Neon’s mom finds her—gulp—bra in his room. Hey! No judging! Those hook thingies are complicated! So he’d figured he’d better practice, what with the big day only a month away. Twenty-four minutes ago: Neon leaves his shift at work at his dad’s bingo hall, making sure to bring some chicken tenders for Aria. They’re not candlelight and they definitely aren’t caviar, but they are her favorite. And right this second? Neon is locked in Aria’s bathroom, completely freaking out because twenty-four seconds from now he and Aria are about to…about to… Well, they won’t do anything if he can’t get out of his own head (all the advice, insecurities, and what-ifs) and out of this bathroom! Intrigued? Join us at the Haymarket Theater to hear from this master of compelling stories.
