If you’re looking for a similar type of story, you should check out some of the titles below. Punk 57 had me hooked on every page and feeling all sorts of emotions at the end. Although it has teenage characters, this is a young adult to new adult read with some smutty scenes. Punk 57 has themes of anti-bullying, prejudice, revenge, grief, and friends to lovers (and enemies to lovers). This was when he realized that his dream girl was really everything he hated. That was until Misha got the opportunity to meet Ryen. Three rules are set, no pictures, no phone calls, and no social media.Įverything was perfect about this friendship/relationship. They could talk to each other about anything but vowed not to meet in person or look each other up on social media because it could ruin everything. Throughout the years, they remained in contact through their letters. Over the years, they become not only the best pen pals but the best of friends, always looking forward to a new letter from each other. This story begins in the 5th grade when a young boy, Misha, decides to participate in a pen pal program. Don’t worry, I won’t spoil the ending for you if you haven’t finished reading yet. Before I get into the best similar books to Punk 57, let’s quickly recap the story.
