I really loved The Breakaways by Cathy G. Johnson. I read it all in one sitting. It's a fast-paced, fun read. It did take me some time to get a feel for the separate characters, and the art made some characters appear androgynous when I don't believe they were intended to appear that way. That's really my only tiny complaint with this book, and that's only because it distracted me from the story.

Faith has daydreams that mingle throughout the story and give perspective into the process of building her own identity. This is a story of friendship. This is a story of accepting differences and realizing what makes us who we are. It's absolutely lovely and so refreshing to see characters not be ridiculed or teased for coming out as who they are, even if that's not 100% realistic. The hope this book inspires is worth the loss of a little realism.
