About Alex Sanchez (from http://www.alexsanchez.com)

Getting It, 2006, won a Myers Outstanding Book Award. The story centers on two teenage boys, one straight and the other gay. Imagine QUEER EYE for the straight teen BOY!

Alex Sanchez is author of the novel Rainbow Boys, selected as a 2002 "Best Book for Young Adults" by the American Library Association and a finalist for the Lambda Literary Award. As a result of the extraordinary reception to Rainbow Boys, Alex was honored as a "Flying Start" by Publishers Weekly.

Rainbow High, the sequel to Rainbow Boys, was released in fall 2003 and also selected as a Lambda Literary Award finalist. His short story, "If You Kiss a Boy" appeared in the fall 2003 anthology 13: Thirteen Stories about the Agony and Ecstasy of Being Thirteen, edited by James Howe.

In 2004, Alex published So Hard to Say, a novel for younger readers, which won the Lambda Literary Award. In 2005, the third novel in the Rainbow series, Rainbow Road, was published, completing the Rainbow trilogy.

PS. Spelling does not count.

I tossed up a quick-n-dirty website for Soul Enchilada until the jacket art is available. There's nothing there you haven't seen, so don't click here.
