Wilson, Martin What They Always Tell Us, 288 p. Delacorte Press, 2008.
Language: PG-13 (20); Sexual Content: PG; Violence: G.
MS, HS - ESSENTIAL
Alex has gotten into enough trouble to lose his friends, his reputation, and the trust of his family. As he and everyone else slowly recovers, he finds a new sport to be good in, earns back the trust of his brother, and even finds a few unlikely friends.
I loved this book. The interesting tweaks in some parts made it so I was addicted. It turned out well, and even though I wouldn't recommend it to an elementary library, it is be one to read. The author did an amazing job at bringing the characters to life.
Student Reviewer: KH
SPOILER ALERT:
The main character is hiding the fact that he is gay. There is no overt sexuality in the narrative, though.
