    About this audiobook

    Cohen: It turns out making out with my best friend in high school could be considered gay. Who knew? Apparently, everyone but me.

    Now that it's been pointed out, I can't help reliving it in my head. Repeatedly. Goodbye Denial Town, hello Confusionville.

    When my path leads me down the gay dating app route, I don't expect to meet anyone I like, but then I meet him. He can't be more opposite than me. He's smart, he hates hockey, and he identifies as demi-something I've never heard of. Yet I can't deny something's there.

    Seth: All my life, I've felt broken. Sick of being asked if I could be gay by ex-girlfriends, friends, and even my parents, I join a gay dating app to prove a point.

    I don't expect to find what's always been missing. A real connection. The problem is, I'm too scared to meet him in person. He's a hockey player, and I fear when he finds out my twin plays for the NHL, I'll be overshadowed by my overachieving brother. Again. Worse yet, what happens if we meet and that connection isn't the same?

    When I tell him I'm not ready, he's disappointed but supportive. Fate, on the other hand, isn't as accepting.

    Contains mature themes.

      This was such an easy listen, and I don't mean that in a boring way. The characters were easy to love and to me the plot had the perfect pace. Things happened at the right time. I wasn't surprised nor was I annoyed at things happening too fast or too slow - it was perfect. The struggles/drama wasn't drawn-out into endless misunderstandings, which made me truly enjoy the characters and I couldn't help laugh, smile and feel with them.

    • 5/5
      Interesting look at the different ways to find your person, when you find them things fall into place, even if it takes effort , patience, and understanding. Surprisingly didn’t drag, not usually a fan super slow burn, one thing didn’t care for was Cohen’s opinion on his intelligence. I get not everyone is book smart and quick witted but that doesn’t make you dumb, especially if you’re smart enough to be a 1st line player on playoff caliber team.
