Written over ten years ago, AM I BLUE? is still as important today as it was then. A short-story collection dealing with GLBT (gay/lesbian/ bisexual/transgender) issues by some of 1995's top authors, this book is a true gem for teens searching for their identity--or just looking for a good read. With stories ranging from contemporary paranormal, to ones set in the 1950's, to one based during the Vietnam War, & even one in another world of Amazon warriors, there's something here for everyone.
It's hard to pick a favorite, as each story has something different to offer. From alllowing everyone in the world to see who is gay, to wondering what it would have been like to have two gay shepherds at the birth of Christ, to manning a booth about gays & lesbians at a school parents' night, each short story has an engaging story to tell.
The only thing that would make this book better is to have a part two--another AM I BLUE? published in 2006 with some of today's best GLBT authors like Julie Anne Peters, Brent Hartinger, David Levithan, & more.

An array of short stories for the open minded. - By: , 11 Dec 2000 
I am usuallly inclined to think that short stories are too short, I like a long book with an, if not happy then conclusive ending. This book had many short but generallly conclusive stories on the subject of Homosexuality wether it be the storyteller, the parents or the friends. The book touched on sensitive issues & i think was aimed towards younger readers to maybe understand & accept.
