Two Boys Kissing by David Levithan

In a small town, on the front lawn of the high school, there are two boys kissing. Craig and Harry are trying to break the world record for longest kiss. Not too far away there is Avery and Ryan, who just met the night before at a queer prom. Everything is new and exciting for them. In the next town over are Peter and Neil, who have been together for a long time, and spend their days eating ihop pancakes and playing video games. A few miles away is Cooper. Cooper has no one, and he doesn't feel anything. He has forgot how. None of these people know each other; nothing connects them; accept two boys kissing.

Told from a unique perspective, David Levithan tells an intricate story that entwines the past, present, and future. He reminds us of the fight we have faced, and the one we continue to fight for our rights and others. Two Boys Kissing is a must read for all, and it enables us to think about the big picture of life as it was, is, and will be.
