The Minus-One Club
Heartfelt and moving; this teen novel about a boy losing his sister and coming to terms with his sexuality is emotional and inspiring. After the loss of his older sister, Kermit is angry and lost. His parents are shaken and nothing is the same. At school he finds a mysterious note in his locker telling him to meet in the art room after school. When he gets there he meets other teens who have lost someone dear. A sister, a mother, a grandfather, and so on. They take him under his wing - they don't ever talk about IT, but they are there for each other through the tears and through it all. In the club, Kermit starts to get close to Matt, the only openly gay kid in school. The two start to fall for each other and work through their demons. Very moving!
