I enjoyed a lot of what this book was telling me, but I thought it went much too fast losing some of the character development and I thought there were some stereotypes of gay and latin people throughout that made me enjoy the book less.

This book was just so good, took me through a range of emotions. Getting into it at first was confusing for me and a struggle. Mind you, it wasn’t the book, but my mood at the time and probably because I listened to the audiobook version. And the title wasn’t fitting to the story the way it began. But, at the 2nd part of it, I became engrossed in it and couldn’t put it down.
