This book was just the thing i needed for a quick little gay read! I will say, everyone in this book needs therapy. ASAP. The way they acted went beyond “inexperienced teens making bad decisions” but I don’t know if i can blame them if the adults in their life weren’t interfering? 
The thing I hated the most was the fact that
EVERYONE gaslight Jay into taking the blame for everything and was the only one at fault. Lu was a bad friend, refusing to celebrate Jay despite saying she would, Max broke Jay’s trust telling Tony. Albert was just trying to like a boy and got dragged into this. Also? Max told Jay it was okay to talk to Tony and Albert. Jay had NO experience, why wouldn’t he trust Max who ACTED LIKE THEY WERE A PRO DESPITE NOT BEING AS EXPERIENCED AS HE SAID?????
