I'm looking for a beta reader for my YA contemporary romance. It's about two boys - one who's indecisive and stressing out over where to go to college next year, and one who's impulsive and sometimes gets into trouble over it - and how they go from being best friends to falling in love with each other. I've gotten helpful feedback on it already, but I'm hoping to have another set of eyes go over it.

I'm looking for a critique that focuses on content rather than line-editing (though if something's glaringly wrong with a sentence structure or something, I'd want to know about that too). Also, I'd be happy to swap. My main interests are contemporary YA and LGBT, but I'm up for pretty much any YA, and a beta-read would take me about two weeks, at the latest.

Thanks! :)

Edit: No longer looking. Thanks everyone!

If you're still looking, I'd be interested in taking a peek. I don't read much lgbt stories, but your premise has me intrigued so I'd be happy to take a look at it and give you back plenty of feedback.
