Description

In 'King of Nothing,' we follow the story of a high school junior named Alex, who has always flown under the radar. Dreaming of standing out but lacking the confidence to take center stage, Alex's mundane existence takes a turn when a series of comedic mishaps thrusts him into the spotlight. From an accidental viral video to a school talent show fiasco, Alex begins to navigate his newfound popularity with both hilarious consequences and touching revelations about himself and his peers. Along the way, he deals with crushes, bullies, and the pressure of social media, all while discovering that true self-worth comes from being genuine and kind. Nathanael Lessore's 'King of Nothing' is a laugh-out-loud journey with a heart of gold, reminding readers that everyone has something that makes them extraordinary, even those who feel like they are kings of nothing.
