Out Of Touch by Michael Sarais

2.5

Oops it’s not released yet! Out of Touch is an ARC I received from the author a while back and I’ve been saving it for the challenge! Out of Touch by Michael Sarais tells the story of two boys who meet via Facebook and fall for each other. It takes place during 3 different time periods in the boys lives. We see love, discovery of sexuality, weddings, pregnancy, illness, assault, and death. There’s a foreign exchange aspect and some very good friends. 
As someone who has never been a gay man who lives in a foreign country, or even anywhere outside of my home state, there were many experiences in the book I’ve never had. Many aspects were difficult to read. I didn’t agree with a lot of the choices the boys made, but again I’m a lesbian in America so what do I know about being an Australian or European gay man? Overall, I did end up giving it 2.5 ⭐️
Out of Touch by Michael Sarais is out September 19, 2023. Again Michael thank you for giving me a copy of your book to read! It wasn’t my favorite book this month but I have recommended it to so many people and I recommend it to my friends on here to read because I am just one reader and the world is full of other readers with different experiences than mine!
