One of the best books i've ever read!
This book not only goes through the struggles of high school but also the struggles of going back home.

The book tells the story of Joe, his two best (gay) friends and his girlfriend's senior year in high school intimicinetly with Joes uncomfortable home coming after writting a vicious book about the place and the people in it. Including seeing people he loved, lusted after and loathed back in 1987.
This book is well written and you really get a grasp on how the characters feel and how they all relate to one another through the eyes of joe.
A must read, i couldn't put it down.
