| Summary |
A classic, award winning coming-of-age story set in Lubbock, TX, 15 year old Shelby Knox at first sees eye-to-eye with the strict, traditional Christians in her community regarding sexuality's place in her high school. But when she joins a fight over abstinence-only sex education, and a Gay-Straight-Alliance is banned, she confronts her pastor, her parents, and the beliefs she was brought up with. Over the next three years, we join her sometimes funny, often painful, journey of self-discovery that culminates in her emotional, political and religious transformation |
