My thoughts about the narration:
I loved it so much. I had the best of time listening to this audiobook. The narration was so much fun to listen to, I really enjoyed it.
I l oved the narration for Lewis, I loved how Joel Leslie did his voice and his inner voice, it really sounded like how I imagined Lewis to sound like the first time I read the book, I loved how he made Lewis sound like he was always kind of out of breath because Lewis’ brain never stops thinking of new things so this type of narration really worked for his character. As far as Jason goes, I also really liked the tone that Joel Leslie took for him, he really sounded exactly like I imagined him to sound when I read the book for the first time. And I loved how both of their voices were super distinct and made it easy to follow who was talking and when.
My thoughts about the story:
The marketing for this book is what got me to read it because if you marked a book as featuring plushies and Pokémon, I will read it, I love both of those things, very much.
I really enjoyed this, it was really sweet and low angst and I had a good time reading it. This book is the perfect read for a day where you just want to be distracted and have fun while reading a book, it’s definitely a feel good book.
Jason, 31 years old, is an actor in Celestials, a popular tv show, he which he plays a bisexual demon prince. Lewis is 26 years old and is a personal assisant for some cosplayers. They meet at a convention, play Pokémon together and then they connect again, like a year after that, over Instagram and they fall in love.
I love when the main characters in books meet on the Internet (they were long distance too, one in Canada and one in the UK, which I also love) and I love all the texting and phone calls that happens so I was happy to see it here, even if I wanted more of it, we’ll come back to that later.
The vibe of this book was just so good. I loved how low angst and fun it was, I really enjoyed my time reading it.
I really enjoyed Lewis and Jason. Lewis is just so sweet and the definition of sunshine, while Jason is so protective and such an anchor, they fit really well together.
Lewis has ADHD and I was a big fan of how it was descriped. It felt very realistic and affected everything he did.
I really enjoyed these two together. I loved how suportive they were of the other and how they never judged the other, only supported them through everything. I loved how strong of a pair they were and how there was nothing keeping them apart. Also a big fan of how Jason spoiled Lewis, that was so sweet.
I was a really big fan of how their connection grew over time. I loved how it started as a simple friendship over the Internet, then they met up and were tentative about everything to finally end up in a relationship and when they got together, that was it, no weird break-up at 80% or anything, they were solid.
I really enjoyed the sex scenes in this book, they were really nice, well described and complimented the book perfectly. It was just the perfect amount of sex scene for me and it was quality sex scenes, so I was happy.
I really enjoyed the side plot. It was a social commentary on LGBTQ+ representation in the media and how the TV network wanted to give a homophobic ending to the TV show Jason is on and how doing that would have been shitty. Anyway, it was a really interesting side plot and I really enjoyed it.
I was really really happy with how much pokemon talk there was in this book. I really enjoyed how it was a big part of the book and how it was so important in their relationship.
I really enjoyed this book, it was so so sweet and a lot of fun.
**I received a copy of this book, and this is my honest review.**
