Openly Straight
by Bill Konigsberg
This book seriously blue-ballsed me. I'm reading the book and getting all worked up and at one point I actually raised my arms in victory and stood up to do a happy dance and then it ends dis-satisfyingly.
Well, that's not true. It was beautiful and real and poignant and funny and frustrating but I really really enjoyed it. Like seriously.
The best way to describe it is like those cheesy Disney Channel original movies when you're yelling at the character being like "No! Don't do the dumb thing! You are better than this! It will only end in misery!" And then the dumb thing gets worse and everything falls apart but in this books you don't get the satisfying if not totally unrealistic resolution at the end.
So frustrating. But a great read.
