Free Choice: hidden 1

I read a free preview of the first few chapters of this, and I can see why it's an adult book and not YA. There's definitely some language and content issues. But I'm very interested so far. The author sort of throws you right into the action without much explanation- it's a 'read between the lines' sort of book, from what I can tell. I've been trying to get through all my other books just to get to this one. It's like, torture having it sitting in the house and not reading it until Dune was finished. From the synopsis and first few chapters, I think that this is going to be very different from the other 'residential treatment center for homosexuality' book I've read, The Miseducation of Cameron Post. I think this will be a lot more graphic, more of the darker side of the issue. In Cameron Post, there was a lot of anxiety and psychological talk, but no real abuse. I already know hidden (no capital, in case you're wondering) will include some more disturbing elements, from the first chapter I previewed.
