Ian lives in a suburb where everything's the same. The houses are the same, the cars are the same, and their aspirations are the same. But Ian is different. Openly gay in his bigoted high school, Ian doesn't exactly fit in. But he's not worried - he's been training in dance for a long time and soon he'll be able to leave town and train to become a professional. Then he falls in love with Jess, the high school quarterback. . . No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

This book addresses a lot of social issues. It could have had a good message about being aware of prejudice, stopping discrimination, and overall treating people like a decent human being.
EXCEPT. The main character keeps on threatening to out his closeted maybe-boyfriend. Keeps on implying that he's spineless and a chicken, even though he's clearly not in a safe environment to be openly gay.
I expect better from books, especially LGBT books for teens. There is no shame in staying in the closet until you're safe, until you're comfortable, until you're ready. And anyone -- or any book -- that implies otherwise is not worth your time. ( )
