I received an e-arc via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

I was tempted to give this only one star, but I did like the way this book (briefly) talked about the fluidity of sexuality. Other than that, there was nothing else in this book that stood out for me.

The story just felt unoriginal and cliche. I feel like I've read a lot of stories like this already. The characters are a bit interesting, but they're uninspiring. They had the potential to be awesome characters for me, characters that will affect me and move me. Sad to say that didn't happen. Also, Jordan bothered me quite a few times when he kept implying/saying that he'll make Elliot realize he's gay. Uhm?? Maybe let the guy come to terms with it himself? It seemed so off and pushy. Oh and, at the start of the story, Elliot was having some inner problems about his future/college plans and his family. I would have loved to see that get resolved, but it was like Eli forgot about those the minute the love story presented itself in the story. The minor character Holiday was pretty awesome, though, but that was it. At the end, I was only left unsatisfied.
