Oh boy. This is probably the most accurate depiction of teenage boys I've read in a hot minute. Don't get me wrong, there are times when I wanted to throw Nick across the room because he was being so dumb but also I kind of love how dedicated Klune is to his dumb gay boy. I love the heart of this story, love how much hope is put into it. I love the terrible fanfic inserts that were included because, really, who hasn't read or written fic like that? I have read a lot of fangirl/boy focused fiction and these one seems to actually get it right. So often there is a focus on how actually, oh my god, the fanfic is really good ok??? The characters are like, novel worthy writers who happen to write fanfic. And while that is certainly the case in some cases, I also just loved watching a teenage boy be both very enthusiastic and very bad at writing fanfic. It just hits right. I'm curious to see what the follow ups do with the story, though I think the direction is pretty clear but I don't want to spoil it. I still think it isn't my favorite Klune novel but it was fun and funny and sweet.
