Summary: The bible for gay youth.
Review: After seeing this book in the hands of one of my very good friends, I had to take a look. When thumbing through it and saw some highlighting. Now I'm not one to highlight a book so I giggled and sort of thoght it was childish. Well next month I find the book in the library and check it out. Well needless to say, I was highlighting the parts that I though pertained to me. (shhhh! It was a library copy...Hey I used pencil)I now consider this my gay yout bible. For any gay youth out there one of the main fealings that overwelms you is that fealing of lownlyness. Afer reading the book I knew that not only was I not alone, but I was very well off. No matter what situation your in, In, out, Bi, Gay, even Straight. If you want to know more about a gay youths trials and tribualtions this is the book. With 33% of all teenage suicide being based on sexual orientation issues, I belive more books like this should be used to prevend and disscuss this though-to-be taboo subject. Gay youth is out there. And for the most part, we feal alone. Read this book.
