FULL SYNOPSIS - Every Variable of Us:
After Philly teenager Alexis Duncan is injured in a gang shooting, her dreams of a college scholarship and pro basketball career vanish in an instant. To avoid getting trapped in Philly, she shifts her focus to the school's STEM team, a group of self-proclaimed nerds on a winning streak.
Academics have never been her thing, but Alexis is freshly motivated by Aamani Chakrabarti, the new Indian student who becomes her friend (and crush?). Alexis begins to see herself as so much more than her killer jump shot. But just as her future starts to reform, Alexis's own doubts and old loyalties pull her back into harm's way.

Charles A. Bush was raised in Philadelphia, and attended Cabrini University before honing his craft at the University of Oxford. In addition to writing young adult novels, he played professional basketball overseas, spends far too much time obsessing over all things Marvel, and has long run out of places to store his mountains of books. His debut young-adult novel, EVERY VARIABLE OF US, has been featured in publications like Teen Vogue, “25 Books by Black Authors We Can’t Wait to Read in 2022,” BookRiot, The Nerd Daily, and The School Library Journal. You can follow him on Instagram (@Charles_A_Bush).
