Annie on My Mind
Nancy Garden
”Liza,’ Mom said, looking into my eyes, ‘I want you to tell me the truth, not because I want to pry, but because I have to know. This could get very unpleasant . . . Now–have you and Annie–done any more than the usual experimenting . . . ‘
‘No, Mom,’ I said, trying to look back at her calmly. I’m not proud of it, I make no excuses–I lied to her.’

Review
‘The story of two young women who love each other. It is an honest portrayal of their love with an ending that is in keeping with, and worthy of, the rest of the book.’–The Baltimore Sun
‘Annie on My Mind was an eye-opener (maybe ‘heartopener’ is a better term).’–The Milwaukee Journal
‘A tender, bittersweet love story.’–Young Adult Reviewers’ Choice/Booklist
‘Departs from the fact-packed preachiness of the problem novel to become instead a compelling story of two real and intriguing women. There have been many books for teenagers, fiction and nonfiction, that give lots of useful and accurate information about homosexuality; here’s one that tells what it feels like, one that has, finally, romance.’–starred/School Library Journal
