I enjoyed the book and I thought the storyline was great but there was just something about it that was a bit off. Maybe it was how annoyed I got whenever Shane was brought up or maybe because I secretly wanted it to be an enemies-to-lovers with Cameron but with a different version of Cameron who isn't a total piece of shit! haha. Or maybe it was a different reason including me just having an off-reading moment. There are any number of possibilities why this one felt a bit off to me. That being said I still like the book and I do recommend checking it out.
Now to talk about the things I did like! I loved the scenes where Miles is playing the piano, especially the competition scenes. I love the queer joy that existed throughout the book. Even though I had a want for an enemies-to-lovers story, I was happy with the love interest in this story, Eric. I thought he was sweet. Another character that I enjoyed with Eric's sister Nina. She was adorable! I wanted more of her!
overall I recommend checking this one out and forming your own opinion!
