Gosh, this was awsome! I listened to this on audiocassette, finished in 1 day. I stayed up till 3:30 listening. While most people say this is merely a fantasy, I think how extremely talented Levithan is to be able to write about something that seems so impossible (ex. A drag queen who also happends to be the star quarterback & homecoming queen), & make it not only realistic, but make us wish it was real! As far as gay books, this is right up there with Alex Sanchez's Rainbow trilogy...(which I am also a huge fan of)...You don't even need to be gay to read these, it's mad fun either way.
