Every Week at Rainbow Snippets https://www.facebook.com/groups/963484217054974 participants post six lines of a work of theirs, a work-in-progress or a work by someone else that has LGBT characters. This week I’m posting from “Dogs Don’t Break Hearts,” the latest YA romance by ‘Nathan Burgoine. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/221149582-dogs-don-t-break-hearts Here we meet our hero, Beck.

Two weeks into my last year of high school, and I’m staring at the yellow door decorated with all the rainbow flags like it’s grade nine and I’ve never been there before.

Back then, it took me days to work up the courage.

Okay, fine. Weeks. I figured I’d throw up when I went in.

I didn’t. Throw up, I mean. I did go through the door. Didn’t throw up. Instead, I met a bunch of people who really got me. The people behind the door turned grade nine into one of the best years of my life.

The book is wonderful! Yes, Beck runs into a guy and yes there are some sweet dogs involved. I highly recommend this book and anything else Burgoine writes.

See you next time!
