Eight Seconds is a novel written by Jean Ferris. The Movie "8 Seconds" was not based on this novel. The novel is narrated an eighteen year old guy who has been raised on a ranch. He goes to a rodeo camp where he starts riding bulls. While there he makes a couple of new friends. He learns that one of these friends is gay. Even before he learns that his friend is gay there are hints that he is attracted to him. At the beginning of the novel he has a girlfriend, but he is not interested in a long-term relationship with her. By the end of the book he talks about having fallen in love for the first time, but there are issues that are left unresolved. This book would be a good one to be read by people of any age who are questioning their own sexuality. It is easily read. I finished it less than a day.
