5.0 out of 5 stars Finding a New Path, August 1, 2001

This review is from: Lucky in Love (Paperback)
Don Saker's second book fills a void that has existed for a significant number of teens by restoring romantic feelings to fictional works for a critical time of their development. This teen romance also tackles the problem that develop when love encounters multiple identity issues. It also plants the roots of homophobia firmly at the feet of the feelings of insecurity that arise in some over adolescent sexuality. The simplicity of the prose and character development lets the

reader focus on the intricacies of interlocking relationships. Frank, introduced in " Act Well Your Part," falls in love with Purnell, the schools star basketball player. Between them they have to face a lot of ignorance: racial, cultural, and social. In the end, they discover that not even the innocent are spared the violence of prejudice.
