Wes is gay, out and proud, and he is beautiful he is confident and cool, and he courts Mal from the beginning, at first in a flirty and lighty way, and then with more convintion. Above all Mal is a late bloomer, and so he hasn’t really had any sexual desire, at least until the day Wes and his family move next door. They told him he was gay, but Mal has never once kissed a boy or a girl, and so he doesn’t know what being gay means. All the little angst you can find was already in Mal’s past the reader has been told that he didn’t have a good experience in high school, he was bullied since he was smaller than other guys, and a little nerdy, and most of all, pretty like a girl. I really love stories with teenagers at their first love experience, but most time than not I’m there waiting for the next drama to happen, and most time than not that drama strikes true, a good share of these stories have an happily ever after, but sometime I wonder why the reality has to ruin the sweet memory of your first love.Īnd so, sorry if this is a spoiler, but I loved My Summer of Wes since it was sweet, and maybe naïve, but so romantic and pink glasses perspective. Elisa_rolle My Summer of Wes is a sweet and tender coming of age story and the best thing of all is that it has not angst at all.
