Is the book any good?
I'd always meant to read it as I love the film but I've never gotten round to it yet.

Some say the book is better... the film's already quite stunning;.. I think the book says stuff that the film had to leave out.

We're not the kind of gay guys he describes and had come to him for consultation. I've notice that while reading it. It kind of make describes some of the stuff I'm going throgh like always trying to get validation and pushing people away by always pursing validation from friends..

Actually, validation is difficult to come by if you're straight and nearly impossible if you're gay.
