Full Disclosure explores the reality of teens that suffer from HIV. Written by Camryn Garrett, this book shows the hardships, struggles, and obstacles about being HIV positive. 

Simone Garcia-Hampton is starting over at a new school, and this time things will be different. She’s making real friends, making a name for herself as student director of Rent, and making a play for Miles, the guy who makes her melt every time he walks into a room. 

The last thing she wants is for word to get out that she’s HIV-positive, because last time well, last time things got ugly.

Keeping her viral load under control is easy, but keeping her diagnosis under wraps is not so simple.  As Simone and Miles start going out for little kisses leading to more. She knows she has to tell him that she’s positive, but she’s terrified of how he’ll react. 

And then she finds an anonymous note in her locker: “I know you have HIV. You have until Thanksgiving to stop hanging out with Miles. Or everyone else will know too,”

Simone’s first instinct is to protect her secret at all costs. Full Disclosure is a book which looks at the impact of HIV in a modern setting. It is both fun and hilarious as well as a timely reminder about the fear of HIV still prevalent in our society.

Simone is our protagonist. She has had HIV since she was born, passed on from her birth mother. She has recently moved to a new school. Now, someone at her new school is blackmailing her, threatening to reveal her secret if she doesn’t stay away from Miles, the boy she’s crushing on.

Miles is also a lovely character. His sincere support and love for Simone, and the way he tries to watch musicals so he can know more about what Simone enjoys is just wonderful! The casual diversity in this book is incredible. It is also very knowledgeable. There was medical info to give. I really enjoyed Full Disclosure. It brought the experience of HIV into a modern setting. I definitely recommend reading it
