Angsty, bi awakening/gfy, kinda dark but with such likable characters it makes up for most if not all of the negative

I am beyond grateful of having the pleasure of reading an 

ARC of Dianna Roman's new novel Until I Saw You. 

Thoughts: 

In this book we follow Harper and Riley's journey to healing and happiness. Harper is coming out of a toxic relationship, he is left with needing to find a job and a place to stay ASAP. 

After an accident Riley is left blind and in search for a temporary live in helper. 

This books is easily in my top favourites of my January reads! 

The author tackles some serious themes in this book but they have done so with such incredible writing, witty humour and elegance. 

I especially loved when Riley started to realise he had feelings for Harper. Instead of the typical internalised homophobia, Riley acknowledged and accepted his feelings and his sexuality. It was extremely refreshing to see that. 

This book has serious themes and I'd definitely recommend looking at the trigger warnings, that being said it still has great humour, excellent writing and is an amazing book! 

Thankyou to @katieandbreypa for providing the book tour!
