A review by rkeighley
This Is Kind of an Epic Love Story by Kacen Callender

2.0

I read this book after loving Felix Ever After by the author. I was sorely disappointed. The book was problematic in many ways. Characters cheating and it being glossed over as acceptable, the protagonist was a complete asshole who didn’t really properly reflect on their behaviour. The premise of childhood friends to sweethearts was a good idea in principle, but the way it was executed in this book left a bitter taste in my mouth. Most of the main characters weren’t good friends or partners to each other.
I did appreciate the representation of black, queer and deaf communities though.
