She'd cried and hugged me like I was going down with the Titanic, but I'm not sure if that had to do with me specifically, or the two hours she'd spent with Missy in the tree house out back, going through all her old Saddle Club books. This book, though short, has a lot of unnecessary stuff that should be cut out. In the above quote, what does going down with the Titanic have to do with Saddle Club books? It is just an example of a sentence that went on too long and provided no point at the end. This book is written in an alternative universe where girls get jealous when they break up with a boy and then see him dating a guy. That doesn't happen in this universe, so this must be a different one. The guy actually decides to fake date a guy to make the ex girlfriend jealous. Why doesn't she just write him off as gay, like any real girl would do? The main character in this book is doing what his adoptive sister wants even though he doesn't want to. It doesn't make any sense why, if he doesn't want to, but he keeps doing it. He is fake dating the straight boy to please the sister. He doesn't even try to get anything out of it for himself. He just lets everyone in the entire story push him around, and he does whatever they want because they want it. The straight boy is muscular and the gay guy doesn't even try to enjoy it. He doesn't try to touch the guy or kiss him, he just lets the straight guy decide what happens. The gay boy is a very sad, pathetic character. A total pushover and loser. But, this book is all about him. The whole book. Unfortunately, he doesn't have a goal in life or anything that he wants in this story. He is just there to be told what to do by others. If a guy is straight, why would he take a fake gay boyfriend home to meet his parents? (Never mind asking why does he have a fake gay boyfriend in the first place?) There is no reason in the world that would happen in real life. Only in a totally stupid unrealistic book! I am guessing that this is the tip off that surprise the guy is not really gay and it turns out he wanted to date the gay guy ALL ALONG! There no reason for it otherwise. I was looking forward to the guy being gay, but he says, "I don't have to be gay to like guys." I am so sorry I read this book. It is SO stupid. More spoilers... While fake dating, the straight guy didn't in anyway treat the gay guy like he was sexually attracted to him, or had any interest in him other than getting his girlfriend back. So, it is offensive when the gay guy calls off the fake dating cause the straight guy is with the girl again, but feels like he is hurting the straight guy by doing so. Why would he be hurting the straight guy who got back with the girl, and why would it matter?Well magically, because we are at the end of the book and we need a HAPPY gay couple ending. It turns out that the straight guy is the guy the gay guy likes, even though it was never expressed before. And the straight guy is suffering from the hurt of being rejected by the gay guy, even though it went according to his plans to get back with his girlfriend. And girlfriend's existence doesn't matter now. She just dematerialized, even though she existed the whole book. (I guess that is why she didn't make it on the cover!) What's important NOW, is how this sadness is all the gay guy's fault. He must say he is sorry so they two guys can have a reconciliation and be together in the end. TRUE LOVE!
