This book was not bad, but it wasn't for me.   There are some messages in here that I don't love, and the way the MMC just accepted that he was ace as soon as the FMC told him about it was odd.  There is a lot of messaging in here that many people would love, but they weren't messages that I really latched on to.  We have an older couple, which I liked to see, but I felt like I couldn't relate as much.  For readers looking to see something other than a young couple, this would be it.  I also couldn't relate much to the video game aspect of the story.  I just enjoyed seeing the characters work out their issues and grow as people, but other than that, this was just a sweet little read that didn't do a ton for me.
