Less is more (but I still wished for more). The reader is put inside the mind of a young man attempting to navigate his feelings for a relationship that will be ultimately defined by the end of summer. The author uses an intelligent cast of characters, some scholarly and some practically, to articulate different outcomes we expect, but won't definitively know until action is taken.
