Shutout
by Avery Keelan
Maybe all you need to know is that as soon as I finished this on kindle, I bought the special edition paperback…I needed it on my shelf, and I needed the bonus chapters.
Shutout was both smutty and delicious while also covering some deeper topics like mental health, cancer, and neurodivergence. I loved the ADHD representation in this (and her amazing interview shut down in the bonus chapters…EVERYONE IS NOT A LITTLE NEURODIVERGENT).
I really enjoyed the exploration of the different ways a family member's cancer affects people. It isn’t just about the chemo, the hair loss and the vomiting and the fear. Nowadays a lot of cancers we know are genetic and a diagnosis can have wide-reaching implications. She handled this difficult topic very well. I myself was BRCA tested when I was 18 and thankfully was negative.
Tyler is a swoon-worthy edition to the book boyfriends living in my brain. He loves Sera for everything including her quirks, and as a neurodivergent, I love reading about characters who love someone because of their differences and not in spite of it. Sera was funny, confident in herself and relatable to anyone who didn’t just wake up one day in their teens and know what they wanted out of life. To anyone who still doesn’t know. It’s okay to not have everything figured out by 25, or 35 or 45
