I think if you title your book this, it should be kind of epic. And it wasn’t. 

The story is told in first person narrative by Nate, a Junior in high school who lost his dad 7 years ago. His old friend comes back to town and feelings get reignited. 

I wasn’t expecting this to be a high school story. I wasn’t thrilled with Nate’s perspective or actions, but he’s a teenage boy. They do dumb things and feel dumb feelings and think dumb thoughts. 

I appreciated the characters’ fluidity and how it didn’t seem to matter what gender anyone was dating. I appreciated seeing someone hard of hearing as a main character. It was fun great to see how that can work out. 

Overall this book is just ok. But I’m an old crone so there’s that. I hope the people who need to read it can enjoy it.
