I know these books are for children but good lord are these cats gullible

Oh my god I was not expecting this to start off with such a bang. I’m obsessed

Oh dude I really don’t like how weirdly pro-animal show this is

If your protagonist is a failed author, please god don’t have a scene where he throws the last copy of his one published book in a fireplace

Doling out a sick little girl™️ really is icing on the cake for this

bro this romance came out of THIN AIR what is going on!!

#JusticeforTom because I know that if my on-again off-again boyfriend got needlessly killed by my hot abductor for no reason I’d be on the news, whether-as Arlo seems to have forgotten that he existed entirely

I’m SO close to finishing this book but the climax is giving me such intense second-hand embarrassment that it’s almost too agonizing to read. Good lord, girl

Describing calves as ‘grapefruits’ is so weird to me and this author keeps doing it

Having the phrase “are the straights okay?” in your 2023 gay romance novel should be automatic grounds for disqualification I’m sorry

I gotta be real chat this book makes me want a cigarette and I’ve never smoked in my life. What on earth is this

“The truth is: we’re both terrible at relationships”

HOW!!! genuinely. not even speaking from a biased perspective, but Oliver has done nothing wrong for this entire book so far.

I think I finally hammered down my misgivings about this book. This isn’t ‘enemies to lovers’ - it’s ‘one guy being an absolute git to someone with very little to no pushback’ and that one-sidedness makes a world of difference. Oliver deserves so much better, but I hope Luc can prove me wrong

I’ve been having a good time but a good 80% of that is because of the audiobook narration. Joe Jameson is making this story *run*

Oh god Alex is me. That is absolutely my RL brand of workplace airhead autism

I love how this has turned from Hard Political Drama to pure unadulterated capital H hijinks now that the MCs are an established relationship. No complaints here, but it is very funny imo

Good lord this is politically dense

These interludes are all harming the book in their own way IMO, but the therapy notes especially seem really unnecessary. They spell out what the reader would already be able to infer from context.

Oh my god he has a man cave

GOD I refuse to believe a protagonist is this emotionally obtuse. No way. Celeste, you deserve better

god I’m kicking my feet and giggling. I get it.

My goodness are these men pretty

Lord there’s so many absurdly pretty men here

can someone also please tell Patrick to stop “barking” out in laughter? man isn’t beating the dogboy allegations

someone please tell these men to stop rolling their eyes !!!

ah. the book is doing exactly what I was afraid it’d do.

GOD I can’t stand Clark, or any other ‘overly invasive weirdo who doesn’t pay attention to personal boundaries but gets treated as goofy comic relief by the author’ characters

“The poor girl had lived for other people’s likes and had never found a way to live for herself”

ohhhhhhhhhhhh no… between this and the self-described sapiosexual character, I’m getting more and more embarrassed for the author. This book is danganronpa written by a jaded boomer.

absolutely buckwild that RPF shipping is like, a key part of this

This is already off the rails but it makes for GREAT listening to walk/do chores to so I can’t complain
