Moving pretty okay, the slowest of slow burns I’ve read this year so far, like I’m sitting here like “Oliver let him pamper you, that’s all he wants to do, please” 🙏

So rn, they’re apparently just friends, I need Oliver to get his head out of his ass rn, what is this just friends thing, bro just trust him and accept these things, I’m so excited and extremely nervous at the same time

Very steamy, bro there so much tension and it’s soo good 😊

So far so good, I’m keeping my expectations low cuz I don’t wanna dnf this. So let’s pray this is a good one, loving Oliver he’s adorable

So I’m gonna dnf this one, I really did like the beginning and the world building but then it kind of got boring. I didn’t care for Dakota as a character cuz he’s really pushy and I don’t really like that in friends. And in at the heatwave scene, and I can’t read it, I’m skimming cuz it’s not good writing, it just feels too slow for me. Too much of nothing going on ya feel.

So far so good, really liking the world building, have no idea how this is gonna go. Have an inkling somewhat based on the trope but not sure, excited though

“Is it me or does this feel like the calm before the storm” bestie we still have 20% of the book left like, some shit is about to go down cuz this is way to calm.

“Since Adam wants to stay” Ramon who r u, we don’t know u

I don’t trust the people they’re with honestly. Like I see Adam’s perspective, yes but at the same time they need to communicate more

Adam is so paranoid, I feel bad for my baby boy Parker,

Never been so stressed

I might have another sleepless night, I’m hooked

Guys Adam shifted

Yuh Parker is actively so dense but we love him anyways. I’m really sitting here tryna see where this is gonna go but at the same time heavily invested in their relationship. Guys they just kissed (and Parker gave Adam a blow job in the shower, very smooth of him, crazy work

Yo so im really into Adam being protective as fuck, can we plz talk about this :) im here kicking and squealing, he’s so cute. Bro Parker is great too just forever confused. But that’s okay

Going good, not trusting Catalina for shit, but let’s hope she’s not all that bad even though I feel like I won’t like her much cuz she’s got like this hated jealousy, not a good look

Early on this one, I so far have been pretty off on how the series is gonna go, but if this one has the trope of “getting back to the real world to know what your missing in your other life” I am so here for it, like this is not a common trope, but I love it, it’s so good. I’m so down to see how Brad takes this.

Brad thinks he’s gonna leave.. lmao

So the smut is good, out here giggling and shit

Someone in the comments said that most of this book is smut, and I gotta disagree. There’s plot but the romance is the main focus, if anything I am rooting for them so much, they’re so cute together and their banter is so fun

Going good so far, I’m loving their inner dialogues it’s actually hilarious.
I think Jamie is just a bit paranoid about his brother but at the same time his brother should be there for him more and reassure him honestly. (Plot wise)

It’s going good so far, really liking the plot and the chemistry. Crazy start if I do say so myself

So Cam finally revealed his trauma which In itself is pretty fucked cuz of the homophobia, and the sa, it makes complete sense that he dates around not staying long with people cuz of the sa. We finally got the name of Mason’s ex-babysitter (cuz he’s weird and doesn’t deserve any other title), and I hate him, like Mason’s parents suck

To people that said this was a quick read, it’s not. It’s a good story but the topics are pretty heavy for a quick read. Overall pace is good so far, Cam is basically in love with Mason and Mason still has no clue what he really wants.

After the beach party, I have mixed feelings cuz this is in Cam’s pov and he has his own trauma. And Mason isn’t really all that smart, really out here destroying himself when he can just tell someone what’s going on to maybe get out of that. Unless there’s like genuine fear and things preventing him from doing that. But I think it’s just himself holding himself back.

The grooming is a lot, reminds me of personal stuff that was going on with a friend, not grooming but the age difference is the same, and in the end it was extremely toxic and exhausting. Do I feel bad for mason, yes and no, cuz it’s infatuation, and also Mason has no idea what he wants to do or be, so I can’t sympathize with him, and he’s just been rude to Cam for most of the story. But I feel for him.
