On the whole, I really enjoyed this YA book. It wove in religion and other issues that LGBT youth deal with in small towns. The challenge I had was twofold, first Jo (MC) as the narrator seemed almost too thoughtful for her age, and second, has so many miscommunication issues that it made her thoughtfulness seem unbelievable. The latter leads to a lot of unnecessary angst. The steam level felt appropriate for the age group, and the author is a strong writer, which made it even more enjoyable to read.

Short Summary: Jo agrees to go back in the closet at her pastor father’s request when they move from Atlanta to the small, conservative town his new wife grew up in. In return, he promises to give her her own radio show where she can talk to teens about religion and social issues that affect her age group. However, shortly after arriving she falls for a popular girl who might, maybe, possibly, in her dreams, return her interest. Would she break a promise to her dad?
