Afterglow by Phil Stamper

I stand by the same sentiments I had in the first book.
These boys should’ve been aged up by a few years to be even more of a fun meaningful read. Them wrapping college would’ve made more sense IMO based on their trajectories and they way they had them acting.
However, as with my previous review, I am happy to see mediocre slightly boring queer characters getting non-traumatic/non-homophobic families and community supports. It was refreshing to just have a group of gay friends hanging out without any of plot points be hate crimes or being disowned.
