Rep: gay MC with Swedish roots, gay MC with glasses, multiple gay side characters
I genuinely am not sure why I read this book but it was funny and fast-paced and I needed that. The writing can use some work but hey, jock/nerd romance!
Of course, my aroace ass couldn't not be annoyed at the "I'm happy, but I'm not complete" line because, fucking come on!! Stop with the whole idea you're not complete without a romantic significant other. Ugh. I felt this amatonormativity only one or two times so I tried not to let it affect my rating but you know. It's annoying as hell.
