Frederick is the shy new kid and Xio is the bubbly chica who lends him a pen on the first day of class. They become fast friends - but when Xio decides she wants to be more than friends, Frederick isn't so sure. He loves hanging out with Xio and her crew, but he doesn't like her that way. Instead he finds himself thinking more and more about Victor, the captain of the soccer team. But does that mean Frederick's gay? He can't be - he sees how everyone makes fun of Iggy, a boy all the other kids think is gay.
Frederick has to deal with some tough choices: Even though he is curious about Iggy, he's just started fitting in at his new school, and he doesn't want to lose Xio, his best friend.
In 'So Hard To Say', Alex Sanchez, acclaimed author of the ground-breaking novels 'Rainbow High' and 'Rainbow Boys', helps younger readers look at self-discovery, coming to terms with being gay, and acceptance of people who are different from them.
