3.5 stars, this book was cute and very entertaining ??and the narrator Joel Leslie was perfect for this book!! I guess my reason for not giving it a full 4 stars was because there were a couple of times where Doug/Dog totally ignored Lionel like he was a total stranger after inviting him out because he seen his family members and he was embarrassed to be seen with Lionel because of his femme side. I gave him a pass once for this the second time, ?? NOPE. Poor Lionel I loved him and felt sorry for him because he kept getting shit on but he keep his sense of humor and his head up which is what made this book for me, he was a strong and sassy ass character??!!! The ending was a little unbelievable with Doug’s dad coming around to his son being gay and excepting of Lionel but overall the book was a good audio for me..
