Customer Reviews

Extremely well written

I picked this one up because it was supposed to be heartbreaking, and of course it is extremely sad. However, I never really found myself to the point of tears. To be honest, the beginning of the book was kind of lame compared to the rest of the book. I found myself not being able to put down the book it was so good. This book is more than worthy of being given a chance, but read all the content warnings, there is lots of abuse.

Best book I've ever read

I've never cried reading a book but this book broke my heart. Julian sounds like such a gentle soul and the way Adam cares for him like a brother made the book perfect. I think I have a new favorite author!
