Growing up means overcoming obstacles: facing reality even when it hurts, being brave enough to stand up for yourself, and being your own man even when going along with others’ expectations is easier. Geordi is learning these lessons the hard way when his overbearing but well-meaning parents out him before he’s ready. It leads to a declaration of love from Geordi’s best friend Toff―a love that isn’t reciprocated. But with a neglectful father at home, Toff is already struggling, and Geordi can’t bear to break his heart, so he goes along with the romance―until things move to the next level and it’s too hard to live the lie. Geordi must take a long hard look at his life and face some truths that would be easier to avoid, because a disastrous event will mean his friends Toff and Jess need someone to lean on like never before. For Geordi to be that person, he must figure out how to be true to himself.

About the Author:
Gene Gant graduated from the University of Memphis. He has worked with the poor as a counselor for the state of Tennessee and as a corporate writer. He lives on a country lane outside Memphis.
From School Library Journal:
Gr 10 Up—What's more horrifying than your dad walking in on you masturbating? Your dad walking in on you masturbating, discovering you're gay, and then throwing you a surprise Coming Out party—outing you to all your relatives and friends. This is life for Geordi with his well-intentioned but too-involved father. Geordi's parents mean well, but he just wants a little space, and he doesn't go about asking for it very well during a big fight with his dad. Meanwhile, Geordi's best friend, Toff, is over the moon that Geordi is gay because Toff's been in love with Geordi for a year. Toff's had a hard life, and when some miscommunication leads him to believe that Geordi is in love with him, too, Geordi goes along with it because he doesn't want to hurt his best friend. But when Toff's father disappears for several days, Geordi and his friends go looking for him, and what they find makes them all consider their relationships and have honest talks with the people they love. This YA novel contains some overtly sexual content, but overall Gant writes a fast-paced story about a teenage boy living in the suburbs of Memphis trying to be honest with himself while doing right by the ones he loves. Lessons about love and communication are gently folded into this story about a teenager with good friends, raging hormones, and annoying parents. VERDICT A warm story of friendship and sexuality sure to reach any teenager.—Sara Jurek, Children's English Library, Stuttgart, Germany
