   Summary

   After four years of teaching, Josh is ready to quit. His lifelong dream job wasn’t anything like he’d expected, and taking a new position at an underfunded public high school is already looking like a bad decision.

   Then he meets Tyler, an enigmatic English teacher that changes everything.
