Complicated
It is 2:30 AM and I'm giggling, on my bed, kicking my feet ðŸ˜ðŸ˜‚ This was so wholesome and pure and every thing I like about a fanfic (and I'm talking about all the pining, angst, fluff, and low stakes vibes) 🥹
I loved Eli and Alex and all their journey throughout this story. I loved how communication was so important as a foundation of their relationship. Also the mental health rep and the discussions about gender and sexuality? Precious.
And listen I know next to nothing about figure skating and hockey, but yeah I was rooting for Eli and Alex's games and competitions 😂 You know what, there's just something about queer sports romance, I guess.
This truly does read and feel like a fanfic. And that for me, is a compliment.
Exact rating: 4.5/5
