to be honest, over all wasn't that bad, but the public sex scenes made me sooo uncomfortable and each chapter felt like an eternity.
took me almost a year to finish this book and I can't believe I actually powered through and didn't give up.
this was not for me, but, maybe it is for someone else. great presentation, variety of characters, interesting story.
Moderate: Homophobia

Edit: dropping my review from 4.5 to 4. When the excitement of being in the story has worn off I have a few more criticisms of some of the racial dynamics in the book.

A lot of things about the book don't stand up to Fridge Logic. You sort of accept them as you read, but the instant you put the book down and start doing something else, your brain tells you all the things that don't make sense about what you've just read. Initially I found this incredibly annoying. After a while, though, the story became so engrossing that I stopped noticing. But those things are definitely still there, so caveat lector if that'll bug you no matter how sweet the love story is.

4.5 something about the way CMQ writes 20-something characters having existential and identity crises has been really hitting these days (┬┬﹏┬┬)
