Cut Both Ways by Carrie Mesrobian
3.0
This book is bland. There's not much going on in it, and even the narrator seems bored.
It's just babble about his everyday life, and a mild identity crisis that doesn't even seem to bother him. He carries on with two people at once - his girlfriend and his male best friend - and even though you'd think it would be interesting, it's dull as dishwater.
The main character is thoroughly unlikable, but mostly because there's not much to him. His emotions range between bored and mildly amused.
I had high expectations when I picked this up, but I didn't find it worth the time.
If you're looking for an in-depth story about a teenager discovering his sexuality, in a way that complicates his life and provides drama, this isn't the one for you.
