Clocking in at 228 pages with 52 "chapters" (avg. of 4.38 pages/chapter) this is more a collection of stories than an autobiography. The beginning "chapters" bounce among characters and periods. My opinion is that this style of writing has a laziness to it, as if the author can't formulate a good, intriguing flow to a story - so just chop it up and talk about all the interesting stuff up front. Too many authors, especially coming-of-age, gay authors, seem to do this a great deal.

really funny in some parts, kind of dragged in others, maybe almost formulaic? but it was definitely nice to read about relationships between teenagers and older men that wasn't about abuse. ...more
