Always the Almost by Edward Underhill
5.0
emotional funny hopeful inspiring lighthearted reflective sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This is an easy 5-stars for me! Such lovable characters, such wonderful writing, I’m just sad this is a debut and there isn’t more to read already but I’m SO EXCITED to be witnessing Underhill at his publishing beginnings! I love Miles’ exploration of his queer trans identity and how this story is about this but also just about coming into oneself period. Miles is such a multi-faceted character and I adore him. And ERIC?!?!? Uggggghhhhhh I fackin love Eric so much. And Stefania. Ok everyone, I just love everyone (except Cameron and Pierre sryyyy not). This book is everything, such an easy read, the perfect length, I was so invested and def teared up yall, READ IT!!

Thank you to the publisher for an ARC in exchange for my honest review
