Metes and Bounds, by Jay Quinn, is a "coming of age" novel about a young man named Matt. Matt is learning a new trade, learning to surf and above all, learning about himself and his sexuality. Quinn takes us through the steps of Matt's development, of growth, love and heartache. I enjoyed this book for several reasons. First, I liked Quinn's writing style, character development and the overall story. Second, I liked the main character, Matt. He is curious, teachable, determined, loving and loveable. And third, I enjoyed getting a realistic glimpse(at least it seemed realistic) into a gay teen's life--his struggles and accomplishments, disasters and successes. There was plenty to love about this book, though m/m romance (including some sex scenes) may not be for everyone. I, however, truly enjoyed it. 5 stars.
