This is going to be a pretty incoherent and giddy review. I just love this book, they outdid themselves. It's a perfect rom-com,  with meet cytes and everything.

The amount of times I laughed reading the story. The characters in the start seem a tad different cause they are grwon up and mature. 

The internal struggle of both Ben and Arthur is portrayed so well. The giddy feeling of reading a good rom-com is what this one gives and so much more.

There are so mnay scenes I'll tattoo on my body. I absolutely love every single character. I agree that the world in here is a little idealistic but who cares when you have such a great story and I'm tired of having queer books which have apprehension by people and weird stares and all the works, yes that absolutely happens but we deserve a book that's just a rom-com and not some social message bearing book.

I'm going to re-read the shit out of these two books. If you love romance, comedy and everything New York (even if you don't like New York) read this book. 

This is 400 pages (or around 400 pages you get the gist) of laughter and comfort wrapped into one single book.
