Oh, my. I requested this book from a recommendation on the LGBQT boards. I began to read it with the expectation of it just being a book about a boy with the hardships of growing up gay in the South, but it turned into something else entirely.
That's all I can say. I laud this book to the highest extent.

Haunting and beautifully written, Dream Boy will shock you with its impact. Jim Grimsley paints a vivid picture of love amidst chaos and dysfunction in rural America. Highly Recommended.
I read this a couple years ago.
I never knew it was a gay novel (i just thought the names were funny) and it opened to me a new genre!
Writing is beautiful, sweet, and poetic. I stayed up all night to finish and cried myself to sleep.
