Rainbow High


By. Alex Sanchez
The three main characters in Rainbow High are Jason Carrillo, Kyle Meeks, and Nelson Glassman. Jason Carrillo is muscular jock that’s very popular at school. He seems to kind of have a little mystery behind him with how he acts and carries himself. He has had his eyes on his prize since day one of high school, which was a scholarship for college. But then his eyes move on to a guy that he falls in love with named Kyle. Kyle Meeks is a swim team star and an all around good guy that’s in a relationship with a guy he has always dreamed of being with, which has brought him to making a hard choice for college. Giving up the college he’s always dreamed of to or going to college with Jason, the one he loves. Nelson Glassman is your usual gay guy that you would think of, in my opinion. A very outgoing, caring and nice guy who actually might be HIV positive due to a guy named Jeremy. Nelson’s way of thinking is if he gets infected with the disease, Jeremy wouldn’t have to think about getting him infected. All of Alex Sanchez’s series that I’ve read so far are good, like Rainbow Boys and Rainbow High. They relate to me in several ways. Not only are they based on high school guys who are trying to come out and live life, but they also show the teen’s way of life and how they think of it, as well as their future. During reading both of these books, I would honestly want to stay up at night and read them to find out what happens. Alex Sanchez has a way of getting to your intentions and the way you think. He made me want to read with his books and actually read a lot more books and information.
