Gravel Queen by Tea Behndum (totally spelled wrong) was an awesome book. And I love EVERY teen novel that Julie-Anne Peters (Keeping You A Secret, Luna, Define Normal, Far From Xanadau) has every written. In fact, I generally love teen novels in general!!

I've never read Tamora Pierce, but I think I will pick up that book. I definately dig lesbian characters anywhere I can find them.

So... ahm... are you a lesbian yourself? (is clueless about these things)
