Simon James Green
Published June 6th 2019
I have read all of Green's full length novels. I love him as an author, his protagonists are all gay British teen boys and it is amazing seeing teenage boys being written so well. I'm a sucker for just how British these books are. I find them genuinely hilarious. They can be quite vulgar but so can teenagers and sometimes it is jarring but realistically that is because authors shy away from addressing that aspect of teenage life and Simon Green never does. This book was such a comfort read, I felt safe while reading it. I couldn't recommend this book enough to any queer teenager but especially gay boys because they are so filled with hope and happiness. I loved this book from started to finish but i never needed to pick it back up and the end felt like it happened to quickly possibly like it needed an extra 20 pages to feel more realistic. This is such a solid 4 stars. I'm thrilled I picked this up.
