I enjoyed it!! I was inbetween giving it a 3.5-4 just because I liked it, I didn’t have any big issues, but also it wasn’t that intriguing for me and I wasn’t ever on the edge of my seat or anything.
But, I also want to add that i’m not really the targeted demographic, as an asexual. A lot of Jay’s thoughts weren’t really relatable to me, and the only character I felt connected to was Max, as someone who’s genderqueer! I feel like allosexuals would relate to this book more then I did, but it was still nice!

When Jay lived in rural Washington, he was the only gay kid. Now that he’s in Seattle, he can’t wait to check off his romantic to-do list, like going on a first date and kissing a guy. But it turns out to be more complicated that he expected. Torn between new friends and old, and his heart and his hormones, Jay finds his way to his own HEA.
This funny, upbeat queer romance was joyful and heartfelt at the same time. I want to read all of Jason June’s books now!

Even though this book is about someone from the country, it is bound to be relatable to any queer who's parents tried to shelter them from LGBTQ culture.
