I really, really enjoyed this. A very readable story. 14 year old Peter Paddington feels betrayed by his body. One day his nipples pop out and eventually begin talking to him, begging him to be honest about a secret only they know. Instead he starts wrapping himself in tape, but no amount of tape can keep himself hidden from himself.
Peter's voice is very believable, leading me to recall much of my young teen years. Actually his voice is much more believable than most teen lit that I've read in recent years. Highly recommend to anyone wanting a good read but definitely to adult gay men and women still trying to understand the teen world and time that probably left quite a bit of scar tissue. And to gay teens who no matter what can't help but to feel so alone.
