“Offbeat, emotionally engaging, and authentic.”–Kirkus Reviews 

“Archie is a lovely soul and the romantic tale here is a delightfully gentle read… a sweet, perfectly clumsy love story.”–IndiePicks Magazine

“A completely different type of book … Archie is one of those characters who readers will remember and identify with.”

Imagine living your entire life underneath umbrellas…

Archibald Plumby lives happily in the picturesque coastal town of Outlandish. He has loving parents, eats fine food at his mother’s cliffside restaurant, and spends his days on the beach and in the town’s quaint streets, in search of stories to write for his job at the local paper.

There is just one thing that makes Archie’s life a little less than ideal… he’s never been able to look up without having a panic attack.

As he turns twenty, he begins to wonder if his sheltered world might just have room for one more.

Archie’s story is a love story, but it’s also a story of self-acceptance, with a cast of supporting characters that contribute to themes of family, friendship, and strength in the face of criticism.
