i picked this one up because i've been increasing my GLBT collection for the teens at my library. i was expecting another typical coming out of the closet novel with the main conflict/struggle being the main character coming to terms with his homorsexuality. that wasn't the case at all and i was pleasantly surprised. instead of alex's homosexuality being the main focus of his identity, it was portrayed as being only part of who he is and that's refreshing. the main focus of his identity was his love for horses and his passion for dressage. the book was laugh-out-loud funny, the characters were extremely lovable, and there was plenty of good information about horses. i wouldn't describe this book so much as a GLBT book as i would a horse story. great for all horse lovers! i highly recommend it.
