It DOES get better!!!. "The Book with a Promise: It Gets Better" according to Mark S. King. The secret weapon in this collection of essays is this: gorgeous moments of aching truth that pierce the sometimes distracting hype associated with the "It Gets Better" project and deliver an emotional wallop.It's an earnest, uneven, truly inspirational collection, with enough of those heart-in-your-throat moments to keep you reading.Interestingly, the most famous names in the book have the least impact.
