Julie Anne Peters was the first books I heard about that dealt with lesbian issues. The ideas of being disowned and confused are common. In She Loves You, She Loves You Not Alyssa is cuaght with her girlfriend by her father. The girlfriend plays dumb and blames Alyssa. Dad sends Alyssa away to live with a mom she hardly knows. Sadly this stuff really does happen. Even though there is some real "cheese" in this book and it does lend to some stereo typing it is a good read especially for teens who are begining to figure out who they are. This is a good book to let young LGBTQ people know they are not alone.

Mysterious?
This book was good in the sense that the writing was gorgeous and it flowed well. Also there was some diversity, including an omni character and a lesbian. And that cover!!! oof, that was gorgeous. So, there were your pros. The bad stuff??? I picked up this book thinking it'd have a thriller, kind of psychological, a bit creepy, myterious, the usual. Because of that I loved the flashbacks. I did not, however, like the present tense. I signed up for something gorgeous, not a Scooby Doo mystery. It was slightly predictable as well, I figured out the mystery about halfway through. This book was a decent read, but I don't think I'll pick it up again.
