recommended for: gay teenaged boys who don't like decent prose--know any?
Whoah, this was one of the least well-written books I've ever encountered. I can still see its value--Sanchez has produced a whole body of work dedicated to exploring contemporary gay teens' experiences and challenges, and surely that's an important subgenre. And this one throws in being Christian, too! But, wow, the writing. It's SO bad. Like an over-earnest, under-edited, middling-talented teen wrote it. Which...contributes to its authentic voice? I dunno. There's got to be better stuff out there.
