Hartley Mae Jones is an avid comic book fanatic and self-proclaimed geek girl living in a small town in coastal Massachusetts. She goes to a cyber high school and lives at home with her two moms and cat, living as normal a life as one can live in those slightly unusual circumstances. When she meets Devin Sanders, everything she's ever known is put into question, but that's just the beginning. Hartley and Devin spend the summer bonding over video games, comic books, and firefly captures, but also are searching for something they both hadn't known they'd been missing and end up finding it in the most unexpected of places: in each other. By chance, they find themselves in one another. And along the way, Hartley discovers her true self and realizes that she really does have a say in her own happiness, contrary to what she used to think. The Comicality of Chance deals with themes in romance, sexuality, self-discovery, anxiety, the teenage experience, and what it truly means to be honest to yourself.
