Two Boys Kissing
Emily says:
This book is well written in the sense that there were a lot of really good quotes in it that I felt the itch to write down. But as a story, I don't think it coheres very well. The writing style means that it is very detached, and the number of characters doesn't really help. In particular, I felt Peter and Neil's 'arc' didn't really go anywhere; it is pretty much, 'well they're in love and it's cute', which isn't a story.

I liked this book much more than I was expecting ...to! It's a strange style (it's told from the perspective of men who died during the AIDS epidemic) but I got used to that voice after a while and I think it worked really well for the story. The story is really 3 or 4 short stories all told together, all focusing on gay teenage boys either in relationships, struggling with themselves, or attempting the World's Longest Kiss. It made me happy, sad, angry, and hopeful all in equal parts, and it's a book you could read all in one sitting which I like.MoreLess

Excellent! I only read it since some chap in America has got a headline in the news burning LGBT books. I wanted to see what all the fuss is about. It’s a nice book with several stories in it. I think if I found this in my sons room, I would just see it as a book he’s reading. Of course it’s a gay book - just read the title but that is not enough to consider everyone who reads it is gay.

Well, when I was in 6th grade, I learned about our rights. Last time I checked love is a right/freedom. I don't think you need to share the fact that your homophobic. Respectfully, in my opinion you don't need to be sharing your homophobic in the comments of a gay book. So how about you go read a book about a girl and a dude falling in love or something
