This story was truly adorable, honestly my favorite in the entire series.
The way it addresses mental health issues is beautiful.
We get to see the perspectives of both main characters, Giles and Riley.
Giles has a son named Milo, whom he had with his best friend. However, she is currently out of the country and unable to help, so Giles is doing his best to be a good father and avoid making mistakes.
Throughout the book, we see him deal with his anxiety and agoraphobia, and I love how it’s portrayed so realistically. You can really see how hard he tries. His efforts with Milo are amazing, and their communication is beautiful.
He also has great communication with his ex-wife. I love their relationship; it gives off strong queer-platonic vibes, and finding out through the author’s social media that Giles is demisexual made me so happy, his character offers a lovely representation.
In the case of Riley, his point of view surprised me a lot. He’s such a sweet character, and discovering all of his insecurities was really touching.
As a reader, even though Giles struggles to communicate and calm Riley, you can see in his thoughts just how much he loves him.
Over the course of the book, we get to see their relationship progressing in such a beautiful way as Riley begins to understand Giles more, and how to share his feelings, and Giles learns how to express himself better and give himself time to find the right words.
I absolutely loved it.
Note: If you think something you read in a book may help your anxiety, talk about it with a mental help professional. Not everyones anxiety looks the same, and some drogs don't mix well with medication. It really depends on everyone's body. We're all different.
