Out Of Touch by Michael Sarais

5.0

This book…gods, how amazing it was. Michael Sarais’ writing got me right from the beginning and I never wanted to stop reading. 

This book made me go through so so many emotions, from bittersweet nostalgia to heart crushing pain. I laughed, smiled like a fool, cried, sobbed, cursed the author when it hurt, and more.

Out of Touch is the story of two boys who met online by chance and connected through their shared exchange year experience. For Vincent it was during his exchange year in Sweden, while for Teddy it was when he returned to his host family in Italy, where he did his exchange the year before. 

Two teenage boys with their whole lives ahead of them, meeting online in different countries but still forming a beautiful friendship that also felt like more…what are the odds that they’d meet in real life and would stick together and have their happily ever after?…

All that I’m gonna say is that life (or destiny?) is not always easy, and it isn’t always fair…they go through so much over the years and, despite everything, still manage to be their for each other…

The characters are lovable and have so much to them. It was impossible not to fall in love with the MCs as well as their friends.

I recommend this book with all my heart.
