Jack of Hearts (And Other Parts) was a fast paced read with nice twists and interesting characters.

The book follows Jack, an openly gay high school student who doesn't care what others think about him and his se life. That is, until anonymous love letters start appearing in his locker. And what might seem as a joke quickly turns into a nerv-wracking stalking.

What I really like about this story were the characters. Jack and his friends are really interesting and for the YA genre pretty unusual. After all, how many books from the YA genre have characters with a such sex-positive view? The aspect of openess about sex, sexuality and wild (but in the end safe) teenage escapades was welcomed and I liked how the topics were nicely tackled as I think it's important not to shy away and to talk about them more. The column was a great space for it and to be completely honest, maybe I teared up a little when reading the one about asexuality.

Maybe the ending felt a bit too rushed, but I can't help but love the book anyways. Such a great read for times when you are stuck in a slump and need something to finish in a day.
