“But how can I send my heart to him when he’s just said, in no uncertain terms, that he doesn’t speak its language?”

Autoboyography by Christina Lauren

February 18, 2019 by Caitlin_D 3 Comments

I started a new job on the 28th and it is changing the trajectory of my Cannonba11 Read already. Lunch is an incredibly social time unlike my old gig where lunch was always guaranteed 45 minutes of reading time. I also stare at a computer screen for most of the day, unlike before, so I keep delaying writing my reviews.

Autoboygraphy is largely from the point of view of a teenager named Tanner, who […]

“Everything feels yes.”

May 3, 2018 by narfna 8 Comments

I thought this was lovely, and I’m so glad I picked it up on a whim. I really only have two complaints. I had such a good time reading it, I put it on my wishlist immediately, and can see myself upping this to five stars in the future when maybe those complaints won’t matter as much to me. This is a young adult coming of age romance between two boys. One (Tanner) is a bisexual eighteen-year old whose family moved to Provo, Utah when […]
