• Fantastic mcs. I adored both Daniel and Colin's povs. There was never a moment when I wanted to skim someone's chapters. In fact, I often wanted more scenes from each of their povs.
• I think that the plot was a tad repetitive; cycling through sex scenes, dialogue and tattooing got old pretty fast.
• The fact this story focused on a man in his twenties coming to terms with his sexuality made me weep with joy; it was not only about coming out but also about first relationships and experiences.
• I am not sure how to feel about the eating disorder rep. I definitely need to do more research and find some #ownvoices reviews, if any exist.
• There was so much communications between mcs. Halle-freaking-lujah!
• ^Honestly, this made the story for me. I am sick of miscommunication in romances like this. Colin and Daniel’s openness about all aspects of their lives was everything, especially when they had honest conversations about sex and boundaries.
• The tattoo artistry subplot was also amazing, so authentic.
• I did feel like I needed a tad more from Colin’s backstory. His eating disorder and fitness addiction were not glossed over but I felt like it could have played a more on-page role too. In particular, I would appreciate having some of his therapy sessions on the page.
• More about Daniel’s naval experiences and how that affected him would have been nice too.
• Witt has an addictive writing style.
