I felt ancient reading this book. It‘s about coming out, about first love and first loss during freshman year. Everyone in the book is sooo gentle and good: it was all a bit too cheesy and YA for me.

Gleefulreader I‘m laughing because I feel like I could have written that review about a lot of books recently. It is why I find my reading habits and what I pick up has changed lately. 8h
Kerrbearlib Beautiful picture! 8h
BarbaraBB @Gleefulreader I recognize that. And I was never much into YA anyway! 8h

Suet624 In this dead of winter I find I‘ve become tempted by any book with that type of colorful cover. 🤷ðŸ»â€â™€ï¸ 8h

One of my favourites (so far!) from the #ToB longlist. Daniel is a scholarship student at an elite East Coast university. His roommate, Sam, is the opposite - a popular, good-looking guy whose father also attended the college. Against first impressions the two become best friends and then something more, but can their relationship go the distance?

Be warned - it‘s a sad one. 😢
