*(Disclaimer: my family is imperfect and they were abusive to me, but I did assume coming out specifically would go okay until I actually came out and reality proved otherwise. I wasn't on speaking terms with my biological family from 19-27 or so. Honestly the reaction to coming out is probably what was the last straw, and I'm not sure that a last straw would have existed otherwise. And I needed that no-contact time to survive and become the person I am.)

I loved how Tanner's family was endlessly supportive of who he was as an individual, and thought it was an interesting and realistic twist to see how his ever-supportive parents changed their tune [a little bit] when he started getting into a relationship with a Mormon.
Overall, I liked this book. It was cute without being too cheesy, which I liked because I'm not typically a huge romance fan. The characters had real, relatable emotions throughout the book as well. I would definitely recommend this book to others, and will look at other books written by these authors (Christina Lauren is actually a combination of the co-authors' names).

There are a few minor Harry Potter references sprinkled throughout the book.
