Review:
Okay. Okay.
Remember when I read [b:Trust the Focus|22663603|Trust the Focus (In Focus, #1)|Megan Erickson|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1417546777s/22663603.jpg|42162412] and totally loved it? And then the cover for Focus on Me was revealed and I basically stared at my screen forever?
You guys, this series is quickly becoming one of my favorite NA romance series, like, ever.
After reading Trust the Focus, Focus on Me was everything I hoped for and more. I devoured most of it on a train ride to and from Chicago and sat huddled in my seat, flipping through the pages, my heart totally breaking for Colin and Riley. I can't tell you how quickly I got attached to these guys and while I still haven't cried reading a book...this one came close.
Colin and Riley's romance is steamy, adorable, heartbreaking and real. Erickson tackles some really serious issues (depression and an eating disorder), and while I can't speak for the accuracy for either of them as I don't have enough expertise, I can say that at least from my perspective, it seemed to be handled really respectfully. I especially loved that there wasn't a magical cure (or magical healing love interest either, for that matter).
I love this book and I love this series and I can't wait for the next one. If you're looking for some great m/m NA romances, I couldn't recommend the In Focus series more.
Diversity note: this is a m/m NA and both the love interest and protagonist are gay. One of them also suffers from depression and struggles with an eating disorder.
