Review: Excellent. Teenage gay stories do not get better than this.

End of Innocence, the sequel toTales From Foster High, is just riveting. This story is powerful in its message, telling us what is happening right now. All is not well at all. Gay teens is far from being accepted. Teachers, parents and any adult need to examine their conscience. Bullying and bigotry is rampant. The consequences are devastating. Consequences which I do not see coming at all and just hit me the harder when I came to the paragraph. Kudos to the writer for going this route. His writing is excellent. So much depth in his story and characters, the emotions so real. Kyle, Brad, Jennifer, Sammy, Kelly are characters we feel for. Kyle especially shine in this book. I could not read fast enough to find out what happen next and when I come to the end. I say "what!", wishing that the next book is available right now. Read this, learn from it and be a better person when you come to the end. Bravo John Goode and I hope you continue to deliver such meaningful stories, lest we forget.
