Book excerpt: From the acclaimed actor and Stonewall Honor–winning author of The Best at It, Maulik Pancholy, comes a new middle grade novel about a gay Indian American boy who learns the power of using his voice. For fans of Merci Suárez Changes Gears and Better Nate Than Ever. Thirteen-year-old Nikhil Shah is the beloved voice actor for Raj Reddy on the hit animated series Raj Reddy in Outer Space. But when his mom temporarily moves them to the small town in Ohio where she grew up to take care of Nikhil’s sick grandfather, Nikhil feels as out of orbit as his character. Nikhil’s fame lands him the lead in the school musical, but he’s terrified that everyone will realize he’s a fraud once they find out he has stage fright. And when a group of conservative parents start to protest having an openly gay actor in the starring role, Nikhil feels like his life would be easier if only he could be Raj Reddy full-time. Then Nikhil wakes up one morning and hears a crack in his voice, which means his job playing Raj will have to come to an end. Life on earth is way more complicated than life on television. And some mysteries—like new friendships or a sick grandparent or finding the courage to speak out—don’t wrap up neatly between commercial breaks.

We remember people, things that were simple and had a deep impact on our lives. A tear or two is quite enough to re-establish a lost friendship and the days of glory. Those lips are sealed and will not utter a word and very soon they will disappear forever. While we are still alive, we must dig into our minds and catch all those memories that have been frozen and lie under deep black clouds. Only then can we bring happiness into our lives and the lives of our near and dear ones that have been silenced too, by the tricks of time. Dig deep into your mind if you can, someone has you on their mind.
