About the Book

Age range 14+

A poignant, heartbreaking, and uplifting, story in the tradition of The Perks of Being a Wallflower about three friends coming-of-age in the early 1980s as they struggle to forge their own paths in the face of fear of the unknown.

Michael is content to live in the shadow of his best friends, James and Becky. Plus, his brother, Connor, has already been kicked out of the house for being gay and laying low seems to be Michael's only chance at avoiding the same fate.

To pass the time before graduation, Michael hangs out at The Echo where he can dance and forget about his father's angry words, the pressures of school, and the looming threat of AIDS, a disease that everyone is talking about, but no one understands.

Then he meets Gabriel, a boy who actually sees him. A boy who, unlike seemingly everyone else in New York City, is interested in him and not James. And Michael has to decide what he's willing to risk to be himself.

Review :
"In haunting and lyrical prose Dunbar beautifully and accurately captures a generation." - Tom Wilinsky, co-author of Snowsisters "Dunbar painstakingly populates the narrative with 1980s references-particularly to music-creating a vivid historical setting... A painful but ultimately empowering queer history lesson." - Kirkus Reviews "A suggested purchase for libraries housing a special collection of LGBTQ+ works." - School Library Journal "Dunbar paints a broad and accurate portrait of the pain of the times through a series of emotional snapshots." - Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "It's a certain type of magic that Helene Dunbar managed with this story... A hauntingly beautiful, yet scarring story that captures the struggles of figuring out who you are while facing the uncertainties of the world, a story that should be mandatory reading for all." - The Nerd Daily "This YA novel provides an interesting way for youth of all backgrounds to explore a dark history that is rarely discussed." - Washington Blade "We Are Lost and Found absolutely sparkles... she so perfectly, so evocatively captures the angst, uncertainty, and shaky self-confidence of adolescence that it might make you wince." - Echo Magazine "Michael's journey of growth and self-acceptance, with all its drama, confusion, and raw emotion, is one that many teens will be able to identify with...regardless of sexuality or gender" - Booklist
