Percolation Play by Katherine McIntyre

4.0

"Sitting amid these two men and feeling at home in his skin was just…unfathomable." - Ezra

"He’d learned enough of what felt wrong to recognize what felt…right." - Sloan

“We can’t choose our hardships, but we can choose to weather them with others.”- Kai

I really loved how they connected and always tried to be honest, even though it wasn't easy because they also wanted to protect each other. They all deserve to have love even if they didn't always believed that themselves. They helped each other when needed, they learned to be vulnerable around each other, which is also necessary if they wanted to have fun with each other, it's all about trust and honesty. The found family & hurt/comfort is strong in this book and I really loved it! They deserve to feel happy and they shouldn't live in fear because of dangerous people in their lives.

Ezra is trans and has a very hateful brother, it was hard to read what he did and said to Ezra. I'm glad that Ezra pushed to find love, that he didn't let his brother destroy the love that he has found in Sloan and Kai.

Sloan has also been through a lot and I'm glad that he could see Ezra differently and that he took control of his life and gave himself a chance to feel vulnerable around Ezra and Kai.

Kai has Lupus and is also a baby bi, he had to really learn that other people can take care of him and he tried a lot of new things. It was just a lot for him that his life changed when he got Lupus but still he deserves to find love and I'm glad that he also realized that!

I received an ARC copy of this book.
