I liked the story line but I didn't like the writing style for some reason

I finished this last night, but already a lot of the details are hazy. I do remember the treatment of bisexuality is pretty yikes-worthy, so that's probably my main takeaway.

I really enjoyed this story of five college friends that reunite back in their college house twenty years after graduation. What first drew me to the book was the setting, Penn. My daughter goes there and having visited many times, I felt right "at home" in most of the places described.
In Twenty Years is a story of rekindling neglected friendships, working through difficult past events, and figuring out what you want out of life. I appreciated that the chapters were told by different character's perspective, an approach that is definitely a favorite of mine. The book held my interest throughout, in fact, I ended up staying up pretty late last night to finish because I had to see how things would turn out.
** I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. **
