Logan Witherspoon recently broke up with his high school girlfriend of three years, Brenda. He thought they were both in love, but it turns out that she cheated on him. Now he's depressed and lonely, and his friends aren't sure he'll recover.

Then along comes Sage, a quirky and odd new girl in the tiny town of Boyer. Although she doesn't completely fit in, Logan is instantly attracted to her. Their relationship grows, becoming more and more complicated. Neither is sure whether they want a friendship or something more. When they finally go farther and kiss, Sage reveals a huge secret that will literally effect both of them for the rest of their lives. Sage is a boy.

Logan has no idea how to respond, and he leaves Sage alone just when she needs him the most. What comes after is an incredibly complicated relationship that pulls Logan in so many directions. Questions are answered, lines are crossed, and friendships are made and broken.

Brian Katcher has done an incredible job of approaching a touchy subject with absolute sincerity. The novel was completely honest and dealt with the subject tastefully, all while showing true emotions. Logan was a real person who experienced real feelings. All of his reactions were understandable and realistic. Sage was an entrancing character who was so easy to feel for. Her situation was incredibly difficult, and her pain really jumped out of the pages. She was easy to feel for, and I always wanted the best for her.

ALMOST PERFECT was simply wow. Such a heavy topic that was never shied away from, and I wholeheartedly enjoyed the story. This book was a real eye-opener. It teaches you that one should never judge and just how valuable true friends really are. This is a must-read for everyone!
