Time to Shine

twirling my hair & kicking my feet

this was really sweet & had a lot of momentum, i ripped through it. there were a lot of eye-roll parts of it as far as story & dialogue & the vocabulary used goes, but if u don't think about it too much & let it be a silly little romance book its a really enjoyable read

edit: also ! there's no hate crimes or homophobia in this which is just Nice. sometimes gay media doesn't have to be about having an awful time bc ur gay !

So cute!!!! I love how this author writes opposite MC's. like both Casey and Landon had such different personalities, vibes, and physical appearance. But when they came together it was chefs kiss.

Casey loved people, always chatty? And Landon was quiet and didn't like to be touched. But even though Casey was a touchy feely guy, he immediately saw that unspoken boundary. The two MC's immediately just GOT the other person. I loved it.

I loved that it was spicy without actual full on sex. There was like all the foreplay and various jobs, but they found ways to be sexual and intimate without the actual penetration of it. And Casey was a reformed bi player versus Landon being a virgin unsure of his sexuality label. They just kind of went with what felt right and I loved that
