Den var helt okej, men jag är förbannad över att Jonas tyckte att det mellan Paul och Daniel var helt okej.

The idea of this book,
to get to know your dead brother through what he left behind, is interesting enough. but the execution? Oh man it is a mess.
The writing is not at all appealing to me,
The dialogs pretty awkward at times,
The characters flat and just have the oddest way of reacting.

Spoiler Especially Jonas, the main character, did the weirdest things...
He frustrated me so much...
I mean he had no real reaction to his MOMS FRIEND taking naked picture of his, at the time, underage brother???
Or that Daniel was fucking sexually attracted to Paul??
Why did Jonas even want a picture of his naked brother that Daniel had taken? Whyyy???

There is so much more that bothers me but I have no patience to list them all. This book was defiantly not for me.
