Fake Out

I did the AB by [a:Alexander Cendese 4419118 Alexander Cendese https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png] & [a:Iggy Toma 13543759 Iggy Toma https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png] and they basically phoned in their performance. Can't say I blame them. The story is fine. If you're a fan of Hollywood rom-coms, the ones that have only a passing familiarity with RL people, problems, and situations you'll enjoy this. There's banter, likable characters, and romance. What's not to like? I had a few things but they're inconsequential and I'll just put them under the spoiler tag. I could've done with one or two less issues, particularly as they aren't treated with any kind of seriousness: Maddox "discovers" he's actually bi and it's like realizing he likes Rocky Road AND pistachio! Nothing to lose sleep over. In fact he pretty speedily becomes a hungry bottom. There's a secret parentage, debilitating illness, fear of commitment, loss of dreams, etc etc etc Damon spends loads of time doubting Maddox's intentions due to past history and then there was the whole apartment situation followed and the graduation fiasco. To me the humor read between juvenile and retro, I was just exhausted by the end and I could've done with maybe 50 less pages.
