Really, You Should Have...

Often we hear people say, "You should" or You shouldn't" and we turn out.  Okay, maybe it's just me. Either way, when the title of You Should Have Left REALLY rings true here.  This was a very fast moving, very short and very creepy tale.  It was a little bit hard to follow when listening because I bet the print version has different type and helps one understand who is actually talking and who is just thinking things and who is hearing things, that kind of thing.  And while at first I thought a Shining kinda deal was going on here, I realized it wasn't at all.

More LBGTQNTSB

I can never get the LBGTQ thing right.  I always mix up the letters!  And "Q" is kinda new, isn't it? And I hear there are even more letters that people are wanting to put in, so that will confuse me even more!
Tim Federle has written another book about a LBGTQ kid, a G kid, more specifically.   He is the author of the Nate books, which I really enjoyed as well.  But this is way more than a G book.  This is also about loss, the loss of a sibling.  And about an absent father and about Pittsburgh and about friendship and about a lot of things, but not too many things to make it confusing.  This was just a thoroughly good book.  I am sure it would bother David Levithan though, because it is not very anti-fat!  Highly recommended.
