Jarlath Gregory’s second book is based in Dublin and makes a pleasant read though I think any Gaelic Football connections are very very nominal. In a way I suppose I was expecting that the whole booked would be based in a GAA world, from the game to the passion to the sexy players and even the gaa/gay clash of cultures but the book is more a slow simmering story of main character Anto’s infatuation with ‘Straight Boy’ Khalid and the will they/won’t they get it together before the last page of the book. Along the way there’s a bit of cruising with a brickie, some very strange text messages and a trip to London. If you want to find out what happens you better get the book!

Apart from all that the book also contains the essential Anto’s guide to hair for beginners which might give you all a few tips for what way to wear whats on your head!
