Like a House on Fire by Lauren McBrayer

I adored this book. beautifully gay and an adorable love story. I love the build up and the contrast between the life she has and what she wants. I was disappointed with the epilogue because SPOILERS it goes from merit essentially leaving Jane with a possibility for more later straight into she's left her husband and they are living together. we miss out on that whole process and I wanted to see it. I wanted the payoff of Cory realizing he's been a shit husband and father and hasn't been pulling his full load and that she's been giving him warning signs for years now that he's been ignoring. I wanted the blow up of everything. it felt like it ended too soon. really beautiful with Jane and merit tho. could have used a bit more spice but I enjoyed it.
