This one's very good. Good enough to make music references work, good enough to have me in tears several times, good in avoiding cliche false roadblocks. All the conflicts are real-world and reasonable. Good in family dynamics, in settings. All the other characters are excellent. It's good disability rep, as well, and quietly diverse.

Alas, some people will avoid it because it's written in first person, among other reasons, but that's normal. Readers have their own needs to answer to. I personally would have preferred less sex scene and more intimacy scene - more poetry than mechanics - but regardless, this one's very good, and if it appeals to you, do not miss it! ( )

Sage, Oh Sage

I enjoyed Sage and Antoni’s story. It was a bit longer than necessary and a super slow burn, but I liked the characters and the way the author filled us in on the back story. ( )
