In the Middle of Somewhere by Roan Parrish

2.5

What I liked about this book: the focus on the developing relationship and the laid-back vibe. Rex was a sweetheart for the most part. Some parts of their first two encounters were a bit weird, I would even describe Rex’ behaviour as creepy. Thankfully, once we get past that section of the book he improves a lot and I ended up liking him quite a bit. Daniel's relationship with his family was well-done.

What I didn't like: Daniel did not sound like a professor in his 30s, and while Rex was better, he didn’t read like his supposed age either. The characters constantly saying "um" and" like" were a bit painful to read through, and Daniel was the worst offender. The constant use of pet names. Daniel's emotional immaturity.

Overall it was a nice read.
