I'm so glad I came across this book while scrolling through the LGBTQ section on the Libby app. It is about Theo, an anxious English man who has broken up with his boyfriend. After waking from a one-night stand, his date Max tells him that he's won two million pounds in the lottery and proposes that they take a trip to Japan. Theo is hesitant but accepts anyway. Max is a huge mess of a person and gets Theo into many dangerous situations. Some of the stuff that is examined in this book are capitalism, mental health, and conformity. I am definitely gonna check out more of Alex Fear's books.
