Goal Lines & First Times by Saxon James, Eden Finley

emotional funny lighthearted medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

Just realising now that this is the second MM book I've read this year with demisexual representation, though this was obviously more explicit than Two Rogues Make a Right, given it's a contemporary. Really sweet to have Seth come to terms with his identity throughout the book. I'm rating it a bit lower than the others just because near the end of the book there were parts of the drama that kinda irked me (though in general I do really like the way that these authors have their MCs communicate). Anyway, this series is full of lighthearted comfort reads, and this one was essentially no different (though actually a bit angstier than the others! though I also suspect book 4 is going to take the cake on that one)
