Bi-Normal by M. G. Higgins

http://bit.ly/16UEbGH
     This book is a really quick read. It's only about 200 pages. It's not the greatest book I've ever read, and it's not exactly on my list of amazing books, but it is pretty good.
    The main character is Brett Miller. He is a fifteen year old boy. His school is the classic cliquey type. There's the jock's that torment the "losers", and Brett is one of them.
     Brett has an amazing girlfriend named Jillia; he imagines marrying her someday, he's totally in love. But then he meets Zach. He has art class with Zach and when he's around him he gets all fluttery and nervous. At first, he doesn't understand why he's feeling this way, but he eventually realizes that he's attracted to Zach.
    I don't want to go into it anymore than that because it gives a bit too much away after that, but it's about him coming to terms with who he is and accepting himself for who he is.

    It sounds like a good topic for a book. Do I sense a pattern in your book selection? I'm not sure if I like the title because to me it means that being bisexual is not normal, but then again I haven't read the book. I'd be interested in reading this book.

      Really? I thought of the opposite when I read it because the main character is a jock and they're supposed to be tough girl-loving hunks, but he likes guys too, and throughout the book he feels like when his friends bully others because of their sexuality there's something wrong there. And obviously there is but he's one of them so he thinks he's supposed to go along with whatever they say and do.

    I agree with Jacqueline, i'm feeling a pattern in your book selection, as they all mainly revolve around teenagers and their problems with sexuality, and mental problems. This book seems cliche, as many other books and t.v shows have already done this with jocks liking guys and girls.

    Though your books do revolve around teenagers, and they all maybe even intentionally grasp teenager lives, whether one figuring out their sexuality, the suicide book, and more, they tend to be books that are realistic though, and that is what I am more into. I rather personally read what happens in society today than made up stories, that only can happen in the 'fantasy' world.
