Geography Club

If you wanted to start a club and school and you wanted to make sure no one else was interested in joining, what would you call it? Geography Club by Brent Hartinger is a story of a small group of gay, bisexual, lesbian and straight teens who finally feel less alone when they realize that other people at their school are also hiding, pretending and lying about their true selves. Nothing in this book is about geography. There is kissing, some boasting about sex, some alcohol, some really bad double dates, but no geography. Two more books tell the stories of this group, particularly of Russell Middlebook, the funny and believable main-character. The Order of the Poison Oak is a sequel, and Split Screen is more of a zombie movie spin-off.
I checked it out. 226 pages.

I tried and failed to read a Danielle Steel novel - Sisters. I got almost half way in and it got really sad and depressing, and I just didn't care enough about the characters to see it through. I do admit though, the book jacket is totally cute, with four sisters walking in their trendy clothes.
I read 150 pages.
