Great collection of short stories by someone who isn't afraid to write about the messy, tender, heart-breaking, and ordinary all at once. Because these stories were about a mix of gay, lesbian, and straight couples, I was often in the dark about a character's gender until half way through the story. I liked what this did to me as a reader, and how it made me aware of the assumptions I bring with me.

I really think teenagers will relate to these stories, especially the dialogue and contemporary situations (Starbucks crush, college alumni interviews, prom limos).
