It’s easy to become cynical when life never goes your way. Cole Reid has been a social recluse since he was fifteen, when he was outed by his high school baseball team. Since then, his obsessive-compulsive behavior and sarcastic nature have driven away most of the population, and everyone else hates...
I must give the author props - the young men sounded and acted like young men, teasing and harrassing each other and not talking about anything real. It's just that I don't really enjoy that dynamic. I guess I want young men to act much older and more mature - my bad. :-) This was told from seve...
Don't hate me but I was glad when this one ended. I know, I know. I loved Cole and Ellis. I enjoyed watching their friends process their relationship. I thought the mother was fine.

4.5 starsI absolutely loved this book! I will go ahead and say, this is one of those books you'll love or you'll hate, there's not a whole lot of middle ground. I loved the quirky language that fit the characters, and there were times I just couldn't stop laughing, it was so funny. The only downside...
