Quotes
“The
opening of the novel summarizes the main events of the prequel, so that it’s
not necessary to have read the first book to become absorbed in the ups and
downs of the boys’ lives in this one. Sanchez, a counselor whose mission is
promoting tolerance, illuminates various facets of adolescent gay life through
his characters…But the book is not just a polemic (and there’s no graphic sex,
if you’re wondering); it’s an involving story of growing up, not just growing
up gay, and it deserves a wide readership.” Kliatt
“The
issues come fast and furious, but they’re handled well and are intrinsic to the
story and characters.” Kirkus Reviews
