Summary

Lambda Literary Award finalist for the best LGBT YA novel of 2018

A fresh, charming rom-com perfect for fans of Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda and Boy Meets Boy about Nathan Bird, who has sworn off happy endings but is sorely tested when his former best friend, Ollie, moves back to town.

Nathan Bird doesn’t believe in happy endings. Although he’s the ultimate film buff and an aspiring screenwriter, Nate’s seen the demise of too many relationships to believe happy endings exist in real life.

Playing it safe to avoid a broken heart has been his MO ever since his father died and left his mom to unravel - but this strategy is not without fault. His best-friend-turned-girlfriend-turned-best-friend-again, Florence, is set on making sure Nate finds someone else. And in a twist that is rom-com-worthy, someone does come along: Oliver James Hernández, his childhood best friend.

After a painful mix-up when they were little, Nate finally has the chance to tell Ollie the truth about his feelings. But can Nate find the courage to pursue his own happily ever after?

Beautiful Story

I adored this story. It was kind of interesting that sexuality was never a major issue, it wasn't made a big deal of. The characters didn't focus on whether they were gay, or straight, or bisexual, they just loved who they loved and it was what it was. That was great.

The characters were awesome and full of depth. Ollie was absolutely adorable and I fell in love with right along with Nate. I would happily devour a sequel to this that sees Nate and Ollie tackle their year of long distance. And hopefully, they'd make it through and then there would be a third novel for their first year at college!

Yes. I'm obsessed.
