I'm a 39 yr old male, and reading this book, brings back alot of memories when I was teen. However I sure wished as hell that this book was out when I was growing up! Because this book goes into detail of what these kids go through at school, home, and in life! And what i really like about this book, is that it doesn't go into graphic detail about these boys sexual lives. The book tells you of what happens, and why it happened, but it "highlights" the sexual adventures! And my favorite chacter of this book is Nelson! He reminds me so much of my boyfriend in high school! I would STRONGLY recommend this book to ANY male teenagers who are afraid to or is thinking of coming out! It gives a new meaning to the words, "Gay teens", because of what you MIGHT think of what gay teens go through on a daily basis, is NOT of what you think of what goes through a gay teen's head!
