Boy Meets Boy

Boy Meets Boy by David Levithan is a fantasy novel! Okay, not really, it just takes place in a town that is filled with open-minded people where gay kids do not have to fight to fit in. It is a nice fantasy and hopefully a near future reality.

Paul has known he was gay since he read his Kindergarten report card. His teacher wrote, "Paul is definitely gay and has very good sense of self." He didn't know what it meant at the time.

Now Paul is in high school - a school where the quarterback of the football team is a drag queen, there are quite a few gay and lesbian couples, and Paul is about to meet the boy of his dreams.
