Synopsis

The love life of an awkward teen takes an unforgettable turn after he brings his grandmother to prom in this funny, offbeat, and smile-inducing contemporary romance that is pitch perfect for fans of Jesse Andrews and Robyn Schneider.

Promposals are taking over Deacon Locke’s high school and there is no place left to hide. But even with graduation looming, shy and unusually tall Deacon doesn’t think he can get up the nerve to ask anyone to the dance. Especially given all the theatrics.

It isn’t until Deacon confides in his witty and outgoing best friend Jean that he realizes should could be a great person to take. Only problem is Jean isn’t your typical prom date. She’s older. A lot older. And she’s Deacon’s grandmother.

But when Deacon meets Soraya―a girl unlike any other he’s ever met―he fears he has totally squandered his chances of having a prom he’ll never forget. Deacon couldn’t be more wrong. About everything.

Deacon Locke Went to Prom is award-winning author Brian Katcher’s fifth novel.

• Intergenerational Friendship: To avoid the high-pressure promposal scene, Deacon asks the one person he can always count on: his witty and totally unconventional grandmother, Jean.
• First Love Panic: Just when his plans are set, Deacon meets Soraya. Is it possible to find a real connection when you’re already taking your grandma to the biggest dance of the year?
• Laugh-Out-Loud Humor: Filled with awkward encounters and witty banter, this is a heartwarming comedy about the absurdity of growing up when you’re already six-foot-seven.
• A Story with Heart: Behind the laughs is a touching story about family, friendship, and Deacon’s discovery that the people you love can change in ways you never expected.
