A young cross-country runner falls in love with a teammate. However, he has a secret weapon and his new boyfriend embraces nonviolence. Very good.

I’ve mentioned that I have a soft spot for teen gay novels, right? I mean, it’s certainly not the great American novel or anything, but it’s entertaining, funny, adorable, and thought provoking. There were definitely parts that had me grinning while I was reading like an absolutely crazy person. I kind of wish that there was something here besides the gay bit, but really? That’s realistic too, considering. When you’re a teenager and you think you might be gay (or you know you are, I guess)… that dominates your thoughts. It colors everything you do. Just as straight people as teenagers are often defined by their relationship, or lack of one. So it’s not really that much of a complaint. I kind of felt that the Ghandi thing was pushed a bit hard, though.
