Submit ReviewWhen the award-winning author Jason Reynolds was visiting a juvenile detention centre, he asked what kind of books young boys checked out the most. The answer really surprised him: romance novels. Jason realized that young men have a real hunger to learn about love, sensitivity and intimacy.

Jason joins Tom Power to talk about the book and how he’s writing the stories he wishes he had growing up.
