This book is an excellent overview and guide for GLBTQ teens. At a time when the nation is suffering an epidemic of LGBTQ youth suicides due to bullying, this is a book that could likely be helpful for many kids feeling that it can't get better.

This book has a lot of great information for GLBTQ teens, but it just wasn't as great as I was hoping it would be. The writing is often flat, boring, and repetitive. The quotes from GLBTQ people are a great idea, but the the quotes themselves are often not that profound or inspiring. That being said,I think that it is a must-have for any public or high school library. The reference appendixes in the back alone would make this a worthwhile purchase.

This is a non-fiction "survival guide" for teenagers questioning their sexuality. There is lots of practical advice, such as how to have safe sex or how to protect yourself from an abusive partner, and the author herself is a lesbian and talks about her own struggles with coming out. A good resource for teens who are struggling with their sexual identity and need guidance.

Bought this book as research for writing a story. I used it more as a reference guide rather than reading it from cover to cover. Seems like it would be very useful to a teenager who is at such a crossroads in his or her life.

Written for younger teens who are questioning their sexuality. Very very young target audience. The most useful part of the book is that it contains many many resources for other places to gather information.
