I highly recommend that people read this book /instead of/ Jay's Gay Agenda. The concept of a character moving from a rural community into a city where they felt more accepted was still there (and that's a really real thing for a lot of queer teens, of course!) but the ideas (the good and bad, the grey characters, the anxieties and growth) are more fully fleshed out here, so it feels so much more authentic. 

Also--the musical aspect was done with so much love and attention to detail, which was really cool, and I'm grateful to have found a book focused on food/eating/body image issues for guys.
