One Man Guy by Michael Barakiva
2.0
This book was very meh. I really wasn’t feeling it and it didn’t help that it was so boring and I didn’t click with none of the characters. Alek and Ethan’s relationship was rushed and the readers weren’t given much insight on how Alek discovered that he’s gay. One minute he’s denying that he’s gay and the next he’s kissing Ethan and is embracing it. There’s no development in between which sucks.
The writing is bland and basic and the plot is pretty fast paced and rushed. It felt like a chore to get through this book because I just wasn’t into it. The best part of the book was that Alek’s parents weren’t homophobic and they accepted him for being gay. I also liked Becky who was Alek’s best friend. Becky had a crush on Alek but her crush is forgotten (basically hardly brought up again) when she discovers that Alek’s gay. Becky was a good friend to Alek even when Alek treated her like crap.
I’m really disappointed by this book because I thought I would enjoy it but I’m super happy that I’m done with the book! On to more entertaining and better written books!
