I read it for The Nerd Daily Book Club and I could not stop.
I loved Felix with all my heart. He made many mistakes, yes. But his growth during the book was beautiful. Where he starts and where he ends is just amazing to see.
And the characters felt so real that I just wanted to hug them.

Ezra was the best person from the beginning. I loved how he cared about Felix. The way he wanted to protect him at al costs and would do anything for him to be confident and happy. I was totally team Ezra and you could really see how the match in the best way possible. I loved this friend to lovers and how it is not totally clear from the beginning. Also I think they have the best relationship. Being best friends and lovers at the same time is how it should always be.

Let’s talk Declan! I absolutely adore this character and I want for him nothing but the best. I have a soft spot for him for some reason. I think he starts as the villain for speaking his mind and bing himself and I was sure (or hoping very very hard) that he wasn’t grandequeen69
I love the character arc and I thought the ending with Felix and him was a bit harsh in some way. I would’ve liked for them to end up a bit (just a bit) more close. Meaning I would’ve liked to see them get to the point where they can have friendly conversations even if it’s just at school.
I also would’ve loved to see him get the scholarship cause I thought that would’ve been a fair ending for him. I feel he ends up with nothing but hope.
I am a fan of the line where he says he is sure he can fall in love again, I loved that moment and made me really happy and at the same time it made my heart ache.

And Felix, I adore him. I got mad at him sometimes, but never stopped loving him. I just thought of him as somehow someone I know and care about and I could be upset one moment and don’t mind the other because I knew he was just learning along.
Man the last few chapters when he finds out who he is and he stopped being afraid of being happy and strong. Just wonderful. Heartwarming. Beautiful.
The last conversation with his dad... I cried. How he finally calls him by his name and apologizes. Yes please.
Overall I think Felix is an amazing and very real character and I am really happy we got to know his story.

So yes this were basically some of my MANY thoughts that I could put into words.

So many more things I could say about this book, but I’m just gonna say that everyone needs to read it. Because it contains many truths about the LGBT community in general that I think should be considered by everyone.
It shows that there’s still a lot to learn from each other and that an opinion based on hate shouldn’t be respected.
I think the most awesome part of this read is all you learn with it. And the coolest: it is own voices! ...more
