I loved so much of this book I read almost all of it in 1 day. The gaming was cozy and cute, the couple had a wonderful connection. It also discussed deep topics like aging parents, biphobia, discovering your sexuality at any age (this case 50), and demisexuality. Also points out that not all gamers are basement gremlins! Some are normal people that just connect with friends/family/etc through video games! <3 

Explicit discussions I loved that are spoilers:
How long can one take care of a parent that does not respect who you are, other peoples problems are not your, and homophobia is not "fixable." You cannot change how homophobic your ex is, you just need to focus on your boundaries.
