A sweet book, 100% character based, to the point you might ask yourself if there is even a plot going on.

Ryan and Avery are two 16 years olds that started dating on the gay prom of a small town. The book is non-lineal and describes different dates these two boys have, and the obstacles they have to tackle, plus all the joy and happiness they share. The book has no melodrama, is narrated in a poetic way, and sometimes was a bit boring, but for sure very realistic.

The narrator of the audiobook version is very good, and matches perfectly with this book.
