I’ll start with this was a book I was so looking forward to and I’m sad it disappointed me. The premise of this book is really important given the political landscape of America right now. Unfortunately the execution of this book is not for me, between the choppy writing and some of unrealistic portrayal of queer male life I found it hard to dive in to the story. I do enjoy the MCs banter and their developing relationship but it’s not enough for me to want to finish the book. I felt as if the heavy topics were stacked so high and not adequately addressed, given their importance. I also think there were some triggers including addiction mentions, specific abuse usage, pregnancy/pregnancy loss and specific types of queerphobia that could have been mentioned more in the trigger warning section especially given the weight of this book.  

I did listen to the audio and I do think the narrators were really great! 

Thank you Forever for the arc of this book in exchange for an honest review.
