5 out of 5 stars I'm not gay, but I read this book and it's great
Reviewer: seesquared@hotmail.com from Menomonie, Wisconsin      February 23, 1999
After my best friend "came out" to me, I read this book. I found it the library and it has helped me to understand the issue so much better. I laughed and I cried. Then I gave the book to my friend. He laughed, and he cried. I am so glad that there are books like this out there. I live about an hour away from a high school that just recently banned four books relating to gay issues. This wasn't one of them, but I think it's a shame that there are such narrow minded people in this world. This book opened up a whole new world to me.

5 out of 5 stars Good coming-out resource
Reviewer: twise@jps.net from San Jose, CA      December 9, 1998
I'm a bit biased since I wrote one of the chapters, but I do recommend this book as a good resource for people, especially teenagers, in the coming out process
