Not a bad film
I enjoy a gay romantic film from time to time. Although this one wasn't all new experience and happy endings it's quite a sad one but I still enjoyed it.

Good film about a young man (Jonas) that becomes good friends with a new guy at school (Nathan) they share a few kisses and a small romance starts. The film jumps from the main character as a 15 year old boy to an adult showing both parts of his life and how he wasn't on the best path and it explains why as the film goes on. These two young boys head off for a date night at the cinema Jonas is the innocent one and wants to go home after but Nathan the adventurous one wants to try and sneak into a gay bar unable to get in they take an offer from a man to take them to another bar, one thing leads to another and Jonas is left deserted and Nathan gone. Good film for a late night watch and if you don't mind reading subtitles.

Interesting storyline
Dealt realistically with LGBT issues
Didnt get to know the characters deep enough (0 more)
Follows the life of a male high school student, Simon, who is currently disguising that he is gay. He then finds comfort in an online friend who is struggling with the same problem. Simon then endeavours to find out who his online recipient is, while all along trying to keep his sexuality a secret.

I enjoyed watching popular film with an LGBT main character.
Simon is a lovable and an easily relatable teenager.

Album Favorite

"I had been a rather reluctant punk as a teenager, finding the whole movement too aggressive for a Peterborough gay boy, so this I suppose more commercial offering from Siouxsie was much more up my street - and consequently, as with all my favourite teen angst albums, I learnt all of the songs inside out and backwards. Siouxsie has an incredible voice and was one of my first live concerts, alongside Joe Jackson. We were later to bump into her at Sire Records in NYC but I was too nervous and shy too say 'Hi'."

Huh

 don't think I ever really got into this, which surprised me considering I normally like my gay romances with babies in them. Maybe its because she never got a chance to shine like all those other children did.

Never the less, I liked the fact that Nico was different with his ink and hair and that West looked past it all to the person underneath but it still did very little for me in the romance aspect of the story.

I don't think I'll be continuing the series.

Dangerous Ground I like Josh Lanyons books, this was no exception but I didn't like it as much as some of his other works.This was an interesting read, what with them both being openly gay but not wanting to be together in case it ruined their friendship and partnership of three years, with a kind of mystery plotline. The way the mystery was written in was very good in my opinion and I was intrigued as to what would happen after.However I think the ending was a little too abrupt for my liking.
