Summary: Very interesting and unique story....
Review: This book is the story of Braden Lloyd (the author)... It covers a 2-week period of his life in 1995. The story is how, in his freshman year of college he decides to meet a gay couple about is his age, Ryan and Kyle, which he has been talking to on the Internet for a period of time. He wants to meet them to gain some gay friends, as Braden is still a in the closet to his family and fellow students. He has had a few one-nighter's, and his best friend, Katherine knows about his sexuality but no one else. He want's to see what the life is about. Over the next 2 weeks, he finds himself in sexual escapades with the two lovers, maybe falling in love with one of them, and he also learns a great deal about himself that he may not want to know. I really enjoyed it as it as parts of it tended to follow many gay people's coming out that I know. Braden meets these two guys and their family and find that people can live comfortably with who they are. This causes Braden to rethink his thoughts about coming out to family and friends and about long term relationships in the gay world. This book has numerous misspelled words, in addition to words that were just plain wrong (i.e. the word `to' instead of `so', things that a proofreader would catch, but spell checker would not). This is the ONLY reason I am giving it 4 stars, otherwise it is a 5 star story. Overall, it was a great book. I would highly recommend it!
