Influenced by viewing &quot;Queer Eye&quot;, sophomore hispanic virgin dude enlists help of resident gay Sal to make him over so that he can land his gorgeous crush, Roxy. In turn, he learns the joys of room redecoration, proper skin cleansing, and eating healthfully! Most importantly, he learns not to be homophobic and that, sometimes, your dream girl turns out to be a total skank-ho. A bit of after school special (friend dudes are into the mud mask!) but a good book about becoming more accepting, even though the characters are a little more caricature. Plus: set in Austin!</p> <a href="http://librariann.vox.com/library/book/6a00c2251f97228fdb0100a7f645de000e.html?_c=feed-rss"><img src="http://a6.vox.com/6a00c2251f97228fdb0100a7f645de000e-120pi" alt="Getting It" /></a> <p style="clear:both;"> <a href="http://librariann.vox.com/library/book/6a00c2251f97228fdb0100a7f645de000e.html?_c=feed-rss#comments">Read and post comments</a> | <a href="http://www.vox.com/share/6a00c2251f97228fdb0100a7f645de000e?_c=feed-rss">Send to a friend</a> </p> texas contemporary boy teen glbt 2008 hispanic realistic http://librariann.vox.com/library/book/6a00c2251f97228fdb00fad6a0e27d0005.html?_c=feed-rss nobody@vox.com(librariann) http://librariann.vox.com/library/book/6a00c2251f97228fdb00fad6a0e27d0005.html?_c=feed-rss http://librariann.vox.com/library/book/6a00c2251f97228fdb00fad6a0e27d0005.html?_c=feed-rss Thu, 07 Aug 2008 14:30:46 +0000 <p>Read 8/7/08 Liar, liar, pants on fire.
