Synopsis

Teen life is hard enough with all of the pressures kids face, but for teens who are LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender), it’s even harder. When do you decide to come out? To whom? Will your friends accept you? And how on earth do you meet people to date?
Updated in 2018, Queer is a humorous, engaging, and honest guide that helps LGBT teens come out to friends and family, navigate their new LGBT social life, figure out if a crush is also queer, and rise up against bigotry and homophobia.
Queer also includes personal stories from the authors and sidebars on queer history. This updated and revised edition is a must-read for any teen who thinks they might be queer - or knows someone who is.

About this title

Review:

“The book speaks to readers in an informal, conversational tone which is appealing to teens, but does not detract from the serious and practical advice. ...A list of additional resources adds to the book’s value. This title should be in high school library collections, and having multiple copies would be advantageous.”, Library Media Connection
