Review: I really enjoyed reading this book even though I'm older than the intended audience. Where was this book when I was in high school or college? It's easy to identify with and leaves you with a feeling of satisfaction at the end. I'd recommend it to any lesbian or any questioning teen or young adult.

Summary: Very Thorough
Review: This is a story about a young woman coming out in an extremely harsh environment. It addresses the parents, the church, the school, the boyfriend, the best friend, the new lover, the fears of first sexual experiences, and other aspects of this emotional time in a young girl's life. The book is well-written. Where was this book when I was a teen? A must read for those questioning their sexuality - young and old.

Review: This is the story of two girls, Grace and Meg, who met at their Catholic school and fell in love with each other. This book allows you to live through their friendship, attraction to one another, their first kiss, the discovery of their love for each other... The story covers all of the phases and feelings of two young girls who are not even capable of calling themselves lesbians because all they know is their love for one another. You feel their frustration for knowing that their love would never be accpected by others, their fear of being discovered and ultimately separated, but most importantly their fear of not being strong enough to allow themselves to be who they truly are. Although the main characters are young, I feel that this book touches many issues that are very much alive in our society today.
