A trans pianist makes a New Year's resolution on a frozen Wisconsin night to win regionals and win back his ex, but a new boy complicates things in Edward Underhill's heartfelt debut YA rom-dram, Always the Almost.
Sixteen-year-old trans boy Miles Jacobson has two New Yearโs resolutions: 1) win back his ex-boyfriend (and star of the football team) Shane McIntyre, and 2) finally beat his slimy arch-nemesis at the Midwestโs biggest classical piano competition. But thatโs not going to be so easy. For one thing, Shane broke up with Miles two weeks after Miles came out as trans, and now Shaneโs stubbornly ignoring him, even when they literally bump into each other. Plus, Milesโ new, slightly terrifying piano teacher keeps telling him that heโs playing like he โdoesnโt know who he isโโwhatever that means.
Then Miles meets the new boy in town, Eric Mendez, a proudly queer cartoonist from Seattle who asks his pronouns, cares about art as much as he doesโand makes his stomach flutter. Not what he needs to be focusing on right now. But after Eric and Miles pretend to date so they can score an invite to a couples-only Valentineโs party, the ruse turns real with a kiss, which is also definitely not in the plan. If only Miles could figure out why Eric likes him so much. After all, it's not like heโs cool or confident or comfortable in his own skin. Heโs not even good enough at piano to get his fellow competitors to respect him, especially now, as Miles. Nothingโs ever been as easy for him as for other peopleโother boys. Heโs only ever been almost enough.
So why, when heโs with Eric, does it feel like the only person heโs ever really not been enough for...is himself?

EDWARD UNDERHILL (he/him) is a queer trans man who grew up in the suburbs of Wisconsin, where he could not walk to anything, which meant he had to make up his own adventures. He began writing (very bad) stories as a kid and wrote his first (also very bad) novel in his teens. In college, he studied music composition, before earning a masterโs degree in film music composition. After a few years living in very tiny apartments in New York, he moved to California, where by day he writes music and by night he writes stories, which arenโt as bad as they used to be. When not doing either of these things, heโs probably gardening or hanging out with his cat. Always the Almost is his debut novel.
