The Vast Fields fo Ordinary by Nick Burd

    This novel was about a fun summer after graduation, that has this kid Dade coming out gay.Throughout the book he goes to parties and hangs out with his new best friend from California who is also gay. He has problems with the high school football star who hes been sleeping with Pablo, Dade told Pablo that he loved him then Pablo told him that he never wants to see him again. Dade meets someone new who's a drug dealer, and doesn't know if he's gay or not but one thing he knows for sure is that he wants to get to know this guy more. The summer ends when a girl is found after months of being missing, a boy moving on, a boy dieing, and someone staying behind.
    It was nice to find a book about someone coming out and knowing there would be people that would accept him. Even when he thought love was just a word people threw around while he was with Pablo he realized it was an emotion when he was with Alex. these were many event that any teenager around our age goes through in a summer not perticulary the comming out, but the trouble, parties, drugs, and basic teenage drama. This novel was easy to understand, and easy to follow, and gave good details that helpped you feel like you were in the book.
