review 1: 3.5 stars. Sweet YA romance. The family dynamics and Armenian culture provide depth and humour. The relationship arc between the two MC's and Alex's non-existent reaction to realising he was gay were less satisfying. However this story is about a 14 and 15 year old so perhaps the simplistic approach to their romance was intended. It certainly read like a book that was intended for teens. I felt 'too old' for it anyway.
review 2: I enjoyed reading One Many Guy very much, and I think I owe that enjoyment to the fact that the two main characters, Alek and Ethan, are such lovable characters. The parts I loved the most are the characters' escapades in NYC; I think the writing is just right to make readers admire the blossoming relationship between the two and the be
... moreautiful landscape of the city. I did find the family's change in attitude in the end a bit sudden, though I still rejoiced through the lovely epilogue. less
