When someone writes a book or a story for teenagers to read, it's called teen fiction. Sometimes, these books are about teenagers who are gay, which means they like people of the same gender as theirs. These are called gay teen fiction.
Just like other teen fiction books, gay teen fiction books tell stories about teenagers who go through all kinds of things like falling in love, making friends, going through some tough times, and discovering who they really are. The only difference is that the main characters in these stories are gay.
Sometimes, people write these books to help other teenagers who are gay or who are questioning their sexuality. They want these teenagers to feel like they're not alone and that other people are going through similar things.
Gay teen fiction can be really helpful for both gay and straight teenagers. It helps them understand what it's like to be gay and can help them be more accepting of people who are different from them. Ultimately, these books are just like any other teen fiction books - they're meant to be enjoyable and entertaining for everyone.
