The Things You Keep From Your Parents is about 17-year-old Zain, who’s always been a good kid. He gets good grades, never gets in trouble, and tries to make his parents proud. But when he meets Theo, a new kid at school, everything starts to change. Theo is wild, fun, and different from anyone Zain has ever known. He gets Zain into all sorts of trouble, like sneaking out of class and lying to his parents.

Then, Zain starts feeling something for Theo—something that he doesn’t want anyone to know about. One night, they share their first kiss, and Zain’s world flips upside down. He’s torn between liking Theo and keeping up his “perfect” life. Soon, he’s skipping school, lying about where he’s been, and dealing with some mean comments from people who are starting to notice the changes in him. The more he keeps hiding, the harder it gets.

The Things You Keep From Your Parents is all about secrets, love, and trying to figure out who you really are, even when it feels like you can’t tell anyone. It’s about doing things you never thought you would, and realizing that sometimes, being honest is the hardest thing of all.
