If you like TJ Klune, Fredrik Backman, or are a gay man of *ahem* a certain age - or wondered what it was like to be gay and coming of age in the 70's, I highly recommend Matt Cain's The Secret Life of Albert Entwistle.
A delightful and solid read, bullying and bashing take a back seat to a story of everyday human courage and survival, with an ending that will make you smile.
