Stay Gold by Tobly McSmith

2.0

not for me. im usually excited to pick up books with queer main characters, but this one did not deliver.

this book (imo, obviously) is so incredibly boring. little chemistry between the leads, shallow and cringy writing style, and some uncomfortable at best and wrong at worst moments all tie together to create the most uninteresting and lukewarm book i can imagine.

i truly hated the way the main character's friend and sister both pushed him to come out, and insisted being stealth isn't valid. left a bad taste in my mouth.
