I have never in my life read a book that feels so much like fanfiction. There's a certain type of ridiculousness that is usually reserved for AO3 that I found in abundance her, and I think for many that may be a deal breaker; however, with that absurdity comes the readability also typical of that platform, which for me sort of balanced things out. There is definitely some problematic stuff here (particularly regarding the age gap in the romance), but if you're able to get past that and turn your brain off a little, this is a really fun time.

This book was beautiful, sad, and a little dark. I love that TJ Klune's books challenge what it means to be a man. 

The age gap took some getting used to at the beginning. I technically met my husband when I was 9, and he was 16, but the relationship between Ox and Joe was intense from the beginning. 

The writer chose to repeat things 3 times in a row.   I'm not sure what if that was supposed to have a deeper meaning, but it was a little annoying.
