GREAT BOOK BUT TURNS DARK FAST
I was in love with this book for the first half and some change. It was a sweet romantic story and it was very fluffy (fluffy as in the style not the pacing). Their love and desire for each other was just🥺🥺🥺🥺. It was just beautiful. Then out of nowhere everything goes left. A dark secrets are revealed which spirals into a bunch of bad decisions which result in even more dark secrets being revealed. Good ending though. Not a fairytale ending but good ending. Great book but not for those looking for a cute and sweet romance.
Finally something for the gays
Loved the novel. Though I have personal issues with the age difference. Other then that I’m so happy to be reading about young gay teens defeating the world together and going through the ups and downs of teenage love. The entire time I read I just imagined how I would turn this into a live adaption, and I think that speaks values.
