TROUBLE | 
pickDanny Kim is the frontman for his band The Trouble. One night after a show he rudely puts the moves on a concert goer who happens to be his new accounting class TA, Jiyoon. They forge a friendship after a breakup and as the semester goes on with the success of the band and all his classes, Jiyoon becomes the one person he didn‘t know he needed. This was one of the nicest gay romances I‘ve read in a while but I have dumb beef with one minor 👇🏼
Reggie Danny tells Jiyoon he is aromantic, a person who is not interested or desires a romantic relationship. When did this become a word? Am I getting old? Didn‘t we have a word for this already? Casual whatever or friends with benefits? Don‘t fcking tell me you‘re aromantic and then spend nights over at your “friend‘s” place spooning, caressing each other‘s face, going to a wine tasting on Thursday and then bailing on it because u both think it‘s 👇🏼 6y
Reggie Lame but then buy your own bottle to sneak off to a park where your shoulders touch and the urge to kiss each becomes overwhelming. What am I missing here? Can someone explain this aromantic to me pls?!!l Lol, despite this, I loved this book.😁 6y
merelybookish 😆 Aromantic looks like aromatic. It sounds a bit like asexual. 6y

Reggie @merelybookish but it‘s not. I thought the same thing. Aromantics can be sexual. They just enjoy the friendship of it all. It kinda weirded me out but if you look at some of the reviews on GR there‘s all kinds of “yay for aromantic representation!!!” 6y
merelybookish @Reggie So aromantics like sex but not romance? I'm not sure I get it either... And any comments I might make will offend aromantics. 😬 6y
Reggie @merelybookish Right. I will just say this. For a story with an aromantic main character, it was one of the nicest gay romances I‘ve read in a long time. 6y
merelybookish @Reggie Well that doesn't seem insignificant! 6y
mreads Love the graphic 😃 6y
Theaelizabet Well, this has certainly been an enlightening post! Who knew? 6y
LibrarianJen Interesting. So aromantics like sex but not romance. Ace like romance but not sex, pans like everything and everyone and, and, and yeah. #loveislove 🤷🏼♀️ Totally stacking btw. (edited) 6y
KT1432 Lol @ "aromantic rep." ? I also think of aromatic when I see this lol. I'm with you...didn't know this was a word. Who knew? ??♀️ 6y
Cathythoughts Relationships have never been too simple... I think there are lots of insecurities , definitely In the early days in my experience... 6y
Reggie @mreads Thanks!! 6y
Reggie @Theaelizabet @LibrarianJen @lele1432 @Cathythoughts I think different words mean different things to different people. Like we all probably have a different idea of romance, anyways it was educational to say the least, lol. 6y
minkyb I learn something new every day. 6y

Suet624 How do you read so many books?? 6y
