So while reading up on LGBT writers, Alex Sanchez came up a
few times. While Rainbow Boys is one of his more popular novels, I chose to begin with Boyfriends with Girlfriends. Review and summary after the jump.

Mysterious Skin- reviewed
I remember seeing the film adaptation of Scott Heim’s Mysterious Skin a few years after it’s release. It wasn’t that bad though I didn’t really know what to make of it, besides the fact that both lead characters were seriously fucked up- in their own special way- . It was only later that I realized the film was adapted from a book and while perusing a bookstore that was closing its doors I came across and immediately picked it up. While my last review of Boy Meets Boy tackled young love for teenagers both gay and straight, this novel is a complete 180, dealing with much darker and more depressing themes.
