Boy Meets Boy

I enjoyed this book, but it left me wanting more. I want to know what happens to Noah and Paul, Kyle and Tony, Joni and Chuck, Paul and Joni...all of the different combinations! I was impressed with the way David Levithan covered a good number of issues that kids in high school are faced with. He made it fun and interesting to read. When Noah slipped Paul the note about Kyle I couldn't put it down. I love that it's a romanticized happy ending story but not in the typical way that most of us are used to. It was refreshing to read this type of literature- there should be more quality books that address the same issues.

    I really enjoyed the book as well and I like how much it wasn't what I expected. At first, when I picked up the book I had expected there to be more issues surrounding the gay movement, but I was glad it wasn't that stereotypical book I had planned out. I liked that I could relate to all the issues like I was reading a book about any other relationship troubled teen.
