A review by legobitar
Autoboyography by Christina Lauren
4.0
This was pretty nice. I VERY MUCH enjoyed these things:
- main character is explicitly bisexual. As in: he says, several times, that he is bisexual. It’s also shown, not just told. Basically: SUPERB bi rep. Well done
- Tanner’s parents are super-supportive AND they have personalities. I often find that parents either have personalities OR are whole-heartedly supportive, and if they are supportive, that’s their only feature. So, it was truly refreshing to have actual people as parents. I think it made the sister a bit flatter, but I don’t mind.
- it was pleasantly grey (meaning: not black-or-white) on the religion-thing. I’m not religious, and while this book deals HEAVILY with religion, it did not feel weird for me at all, I barely got exasperated, which is kind of unusual.
I have no energy, I’m tired always, I can’t figure out plot twists. I really did not know where this book was going. I’m okay with where it ended up. I’m not sure I enjoyed the whole way there, but it was okay.
Characters where very good, story maybe a tiny bit too long.
