I almost didn't finish this when I realised it was going to be told through the grandson reading some old diaries. It was actually a little boring to begin with but about half way I couldn't stop reading. I really had to find out how the grandfather's story ended. Very sweet.

Very good m/m romance told via nearly 50-year old journal entries being read by a young man trying to figure out the mystery of why his cold grandmother is so adamant he stay out of her attic.
