Short Review: This books tackles coming out and dealing with the aftermath nicely. I liked the MC and most of the side characters. I hated Lacey, the best friend, she was rude and bitchy. I just disliked too much of this book to give it more than 2 stars. First, why do you need the MC, the love interest, and the love interest's freaking brother to be gay/bisexual? It feel too much, and the boys are way too much for me either, i've been around gay men, and they do not act like this for the most part and i wanted to tell them to cool it. The snide comments were too much too, "gaybies" really?! Was that needed, no. The way the characters acted towards each other bother me greatly as well. I have girl friends, and i have never called them "Bitch" "Slut" "Twat" but yet everyone in this book does that plus more a ton. Then the author pushes so many pop culture references in, i get it, you know what kids "like". Too sweet for me.
