Produktinformationen zu „Annie on My Mind (ePub)“
A landmark in LGBT fiction, this captivating story of two teenage girls who fall in love is a "classic of the genre" (Publishers Weekly).
When Liza Winthrop first lays eyes on Annie Kenyon at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, she knows there's something special between them. Soon, their close friendship develops into a deep and intimate romance. Neither imagined that falling in love could be so wonderful, but as Liza and Annie's newfound sexuality sparks conflict in both their families and at their schools, they discover it will take more than love for their relationship to succeed.
One of the first books to positively portray a lesbian relationship, Annie on My Mind is a groundbreaking classic of the genre. The subject of a First Amendment lawsuit over banned books and one of School Library Journal's "One Hundred Books that Shaped the Century," Nancy Garden's iconic novel is an important story for anyone discovering who they're meant to be.

“Gut-level believable.” —VOYA
