Geography club is a very good book. The way Mr.Hartinger expresess the way the main character feels as a homo, and expresess his feelings and the things that he does is not only acurate, but also to the point. I am not saying that all homosexualls are like this, but the obsticals and all of the bashing that is portrayed in this story is very true. The way that the main character shares his feelings for the person that he like is very straightforward. All in all the book is great and would definitly recomend it for all people...Also really good book is Order of the poison oak, good reading

maqke them think
Students may actually think about how they treat there peers after reading this book. I found that it was a great story to uncover the truth about the injustices that we all faced in some form in high school.
