This is the story about Ava a girl who thinks she likes girls but she is not sure about it and does not know who she really is or where she belongs at her school. Ava decides to move to a different school and try new things like wearing pink (since in her old school she only wore black) and tries to go out with boys (even though she has a girlfriend already). Ava becomes someone different than she was in her old school, she keeps both sides apart from each other, but at the end she kind of figures out where she belongs and who she is, she combines both side to make one. I really liked this. Was assigned to read it for the class discussion about GLBTQ literature in my YA genre class. What I liked best is that it's a book about a teenager who's a lesbian, and she's already come out. Now she has to navigate all kinds of universal teenage stuff about image and cliques... I was impressed, also, that the book resisted pigeonholing roles for its characters. I really liked this. Was assigned to read it for the class discussion about GLBTQ literature in my YA genre class.

Pink is an Australian YA queer romance about a girl in High School named Ava. She will only wear black clothing and is dating another female at the school, Chloe. They are very different.
Ava goes off to College, promising Chlie she will return. Ava wants to fit in and be popular, so she changes from wearing black to only wearing pink, does not mention her girlfriend back home, and begins letting g her friends set her up with potential boyfriends.
Eventually her college friends find out the truth about Ava, and her whole world changes.
This book is about honest, self-respect, being disappointed and finding yourself.
It is a difficult topic, but done well, allowing the reader to come to a conclusion about the situation.
Well done. Recommended. ( )
