review 1: I wanted to like this novel. Here's the thing, I liked Drew. He was witty and smart and confident in who he was. I particularly like Rey, a very interesting, warm and witty character in his own right. It's Jonathan I had the major problem with.I simply did not like the lad. I found him irritating and whiney, with few redeaming qualities and I didn't see what Drew saw in him, besides the physical. He didn't explain it well enough to Rey either when Rey asked him that question - at least the explanation didn't work for me. When I got to the part where Jonny put his father on speaker for Drew to hear what he had to deal with every day, I found that to be something a 12 year old would do. But when he got to the part in the conversation where the dad threatened not to continue ... moreto pay for his apartment, and Jonny's begging his father not to (a 25 year old man with a job), I rolled my eyes, thinking this man needs to grow up. Oh I know, his lack of confidence and insecurity in his sexuality had me sympathizing but... he was just too too.. annoying.I skimmed through the rest of it, actually hoping that Rey and Drew would get together as more than friends.
review 2: Great story about a guy who falls for a guy who's in the closet for various reasons. I thought this was an awesome story but found the ending lacking. I would've preferred reading more about how they dealt with the aftermath of Jonathan's final decision. I find it frustrating how sometimes you have the best story but are left hungry for more because the ending isn't done as thoroughly as you'd have liked it to be. less
