      What a fantastic book that should be in every teen non-fiction section of every library across the land. No Joke. This book is the real deal.  While the book has entries from Queer writers of all kind, the entries all take the form of a letter each person has written to their younger selves.  These letters are often humorous, witty, and poignant. Some of the letters speak about things that happened to the authors that should never happen to anyone, and all of the letters speak about how much better it gets as they have grown into adulthood.  For LGBTQIA questioning youth, this is an invaluable book that can actually make a difference.
