101 ways to cook a hamburger

I liked this piece of writing. I liked how the two stories were so different and this one took place over years and the other one was over a period of a day or so. This showed the confusion gay people have starting way earlier in life than most people know. The parents of the boy seem very old fashion. I think the story actually takes required place a while ago. The boy ends up falling in love with his friend that he wanted to be like. I liked how at the end of the book the guy ended up being happy and bringing it back to the girl who had previously called him a "fag". It gave the kind of depressing story a nice happy twist at the end.
