Lost Found Kris Jacen Books

OK, first of all I bought this book primarily because all of the proceeds from sales are donated to the organization the book is named after. Lost and Found Youth, located in Atlanta, GA, works with Homeless LGBT Youth. That was the pull. I’m a softy for a great cause.

The collection of stories covers a wide range of scenarios concerning children and young adults who are struggling simply because of who they are. You will need tissues. A great deal of talent and love went into the creation of this book, and it shows.

Lost Found Kris Jacen Books Reviews

The stories in the book were written with the purpose to show LGBT youth that they're not alone. They are valuable and important. This book could very well be the most important one you can give a child. Hell, for some of them it could be the one thing that saves their lives.
I purchased this book because 100% of the proceeds are going to a very worthy cause, Lost-n-Found Youth in Atlanta, Georgia that works with homeless GLBT youth and helps them get back on their feet. I also liked the fact that it was written by some of my favorite authors so I knew that even if I didn't like all the stories, there were a few I could "count on." I couldn't have been more wrong. This is a very powerful book and I loved every story. Certainly the subject matter is upsetting -- throwaway kids? Who could throw away a child just because he or she doesn't fit a parent's mold of what a child should be? Well, I'm sad to say it happens every day and this book gives the reader a glimpse of what it is like for these children, loved one day and hated the next, just because of their sexual orientation. But these stories aren't all sad, this book is more about hope, about not giving up, about self worth, courage, and love.

Somehow in our culture suicide has become romanticized, the answer to problems, the ultimate escape, promising peace. This book challenges that notion and shows that maybe death isn't the answer. Maybe living your life proud of who you are, finding someone to love you just the way you are -- might be heaven right here on Earth.
