review 1: Extremely bittersweet. This story made me cry from like paragraph five. The characters going through their lives and being able to peek in on them every Christmas was like watching a Hallmark gift card in slow motion about how to find your true love. My chest hurt for this boy on so many different levels, possibly because his childhood and mine were so similar. My only real complaint here is that we mostly feel this from Shawn's POV and then towards the end we get more of Ryan's. Guess the author wanted us guessing what Ryan's real feelings were. Shawn's in incredibly sweet and until the end I pictured him being shorter then Ryan. I guess I thought around the same height? Which made my imagination feel like it was doing double and triple takes when it was proved wrong... more. Also surprised at the kinkiness at the end and also surprised they didn't screw in the end. I mean the jerking off was hot, but I kinda wish I would have been able to see the screwing, only to see Shawn's reaction. Only because he is extremely innocent, like I am pretty sure he has not watched porn innocent. This might be why the author put the jerking scene instead of full penetration, and I guess that seems to be ok...BUT I still wish there had been some random oneshot about their first time. I imagined it, and wondered if it would have turned out the same.Would recommend this to whoever. However plot and everything totally reminds me of hetero romance novels. Not sure if it's good or bad, more like easy to read and be able to draw comparisons too, type of deal.
review 2: I enjoyed the main characters´ growth very much. I also liked the detail of each of the entries being linked to Christmas - right from the first "journal note". And as much as I don´t give a monkey´s about Christmas, I liked the detail there. Same thing brought always something different.I very much enjoyed the first notes, which struck me very sincere and innocent - as all kids are. And while talking about that - it was fun "watching" the change of behaviour and language in the whole story year by year. Very easy story, yes,and sweet. But considering the age of the main character´s there...it just suited it so well. It fitted it.I inhaled the story in a matter of two hours. Can´t say it´s one of the best ones I read, but it also has something in it that makes it worth your time (at least in my case). less
