description: A bold groundbreaking novel about coming out coming into your own and coming apart. Hunter and Van become boyfriends before they're even teenagers and stay a couple even when adolescence intervenes. But in high school conflict arises -- mostly because Hunter is much more comfortable with the sex part of sexual identity. As the two boys start to realize that loving someone doesn't guarantee they will always be with you they find out more about their own identities -- with Hunter striking out on his own while Van begins to understand his own asexuality.In poems that are romantic and poems that are heartbreaking Vanilla explores all the flavors of the spectrum -- and how romance and love aren't always the same thing.
