This was not exactly a literary masterpiece, but this was sweet and silly and queer, and I enjoyed it. Parts of it were laugh-out-loud funny. Other parts dragged on a bit with the excessive navel-gazing and teenage angst. The narrator struggled a little wrt having distinct voices for all of the characters, so there were times when I wasn't sure whose dialogue was whose, but a good narration otherwise. Overall, this was a good, light, fun read.
