Title: Boy Meets Boy
Author: David Levithan
Year Published: 2009
Ages: Young adult
Why I chose this book: A year ago, my little sister switched sides. I wanted to read about what she was going through and gain perspective. I also thought that some of my students may have similar experiences and being able to offer a resource to them would be invaluable.
Reaction: This heart-warming book is a testament of how a society should function. I am so glad that I read this book. In Boy Meets Boy, it doesn’t matter what sexual orientation someone choses. What matters are the people and the relationships. The author does a spectacular job of describing what teens go through, with realistic scenarios. David Levithan has been able to capture in print how one of the characters paints music. I think everyone ought to read this so we can remember what is important... people.
I'm sending a copy to my sister.
I found another review of this book that is wonderfully written:
