I read "This Is Kind Of An Epic Love Story" by Kheryn Callender in less than 24 hours (it would have been soooo much less if I hadn't had to work yesterday (bah, work)).
This boys-who-love-boys book follows Nathan Bird, a budding screenwriter, if only he could finish a script; Flo, his best-friend-turned-girlfriend-turned-ex-turned-best-friend; and Oliver James, Nate's childhood best friend who moves back to Seattle to shake up their junior year, to dig up only secrets and old emotions.
If Nate wasn't still in love with Flo, the feelings he has for Oliver might make sense. But he is, and they don't. Even when they start to, Nate holds back, pushes away. Ever since his father died when he was little, he's been afraid of a Happy Ending, convince that they don't exist outside of the big screen.
"This Is Kind Of An Epic Love Story" was beautiful, compelling, and all-around a good, gentle read. Yes, it tackles hard topics like college, freedom, death, sex, and more, so be warned. But you'll definitely want to read this cute romance whenever you get the chance, especially since it is by/about/dedicated to #QPOC

I love, love, love reading about love. That is what I do best. Reading and writing about people falling in love... Here I will post reviews on books about love, about romance, about LGBTQIA. Sometimes there will be full-length, publish-worthy reviews. Sometimes the posts will be slightly this side of a literary rant. If you have any recommendations for me, please, reach out.
