This book was very middle of the road for me. I can't say I have thought much about it since finishing expect to think about how unrealistic parts were. I know it is a story and there should be a since of disbelief but the fact this was contemporary I prefer to still have some believable realism to ground me. I think it was more jarring to me because of the writing, it felt off to me in some places. Whether it was phrasing or pacing it felt too simple for my tastes.
With the writing not meshing well with me and the story not focusing much on Alex and Henry's relationship in my opinion it all felt like a let down. It was not the read I was expecting going in and as such I think it really made it hard for me to enjoy the story.

In saying this it was an easy read to listen to and the narrator did a fantastic job. If I went into this more thinking this was a story focused around Alex and his life with his relationship with Henry being a major part of his life I think I might have liked it a bit more, but it is hard to say as it feels like it is almost in between the two ideas. If you do want to read the book I would keep this in mind.
