Desciption

TIM is being bullied. No one in high school wants to be known as a tattle-tale and to do so would only make things rougher for him. The repercussions would most likely make him an outcast, and without any friends.ERIC is frustrated with life. His parents are overbearing and if they ever knew the person he really was, they would throw him out of their house. His friends are not much better, they only like him when he is who they expect him to be.DELSIN is gay and ready to come out. Unfortunately, life at home is on the brink of falling apart with his parents constant fighting. Admitting the truth could bring his whole world crashing down around him.Each of these three needs to decide whether the risks of being honest about who they are outweighs the importance of being true to themselves. This could mean ruining life as each of them knows it. Maybe it is better to remain miserable in order to play it safe. On the other hand, doing nothing doesn’t seem to working either.


Review

As someone who has read all of Jayson's books, this one really hit home for me. T.E.D, Ted Eric Delsin, was written from each of the boys' points of view, Tim's being first person and Eric & Delsin's being in the third. I've never read a book written like that, and I really enjoyed it.I never give spoilers in my reviews, for the first time ever I am actually having a hard time not doing just that! Each of these three characters was relatable, and real. I liked that this book had some darker tones to it than any of the other books Jayson has written to date. Just that little addition to the story, bumped up the emotions so much. Over the course of the book, you learn so much about each of the characters lives both in and outside of school. Each has such a different story and they just blended together well.Tim's story is heart wrenching and I felt for everything he went through( again having a hard time not spoiling!) Eric and Delsin both have secrets that could turn their lives upside down. Once again the reactions to people coming out, is very similar to what I have seen happen to people in real life. Some are positive and some, turn pretty ugly. I cannot wait to see what Jayson will write and release in the future!
