I loved this book. If you are looking for a bl, boyxboy, gayest book, then this isn’t exactly it. It is more the life of a boy, about his sadness, happiness and his loves. It is an extreme slow burn, but in it is cute moments that you will love. I am buying the second one now, this has become one of my favorite books.
