Am i Blue is a collection of short stories, about kisd out age trying to find themeselves. When I began to read this book I noticed that the first two stories where mostly about kids trying to find themeseves with there sexuality. The first stories not only related to kids wondering if they are gay or not, but the feelings the main characters felt were universal. The feeling that you don't belong, or even the thought that you are not accepted, by your peers or your parents.Even when books have one main theme that you or others dont feel apart of, there are always inner meaning,that contribute to the same theme.
I think that with each short story in the book it would show differnt ways teens are trying to find there identity, and how others usually respond to it, weather its a family member not accepting who you are, or what you may become. Even a peer bullying you for what you may be. But what may happen, is that with every non- accepting person in the story there is one person that understands what you are going though. It would be that one person that gives that boy or a sense of relief and safty.
