Can't wait to see how the story will conclude (✿◠‿◠)
I could put this book under the business tag also, for all the tips Evelyn gives in diplomacy and deals.
This was a unique book, it was a much needed I could put this book under the business tag also, for all the tips Evelyn gives in diplomacy and deals.
This was a unique book, it was a much needed contemporary story that fit perfectly in what I needed to read in this era. The genuine aspects of the hidden queerness of 20th century characters represent real-life struggles of the lgbtq+ community. I had heard of this book many months ago, and I picked it up when I saw in a tiktok that listed books that are queer without appearing queer (in the title or cover).
Evelyn's character has a very strong presence. I listened to the audible audiobook and enjoyed the difference in the narrator's tone when impersonating Evelyn, the writer and the newspaper articles.
It is certainly a book I'd like to read again, next time in printed format, so that I can pick up every life lesson that can be extracted from the different characters in this story. It is one of these cases when you have so much to say for a book that end up saying nothing because it would take hours to put your thoughts in order. So I'm going to say that I loved the story since the beginning, it kept me interested till the very end, and enjoyed all the plot twists that took place. Maybe in a future reread I will do a more thorough review....more

Epically, poetically wonderfully written. As a greek person, I've had Odyssey and Iliad as lessons in junior high school and high school. This was a refreshing perspective on the story from Patroclus point of view, as it enlightened me with details I failed to see in the past, as well as details that make the story richer and more real and authentic.
I couldn't give anything less than five stars....more

I had seen the series first, and the story is more complex and three dimensional there, but in the graphic novel the story focuses mainly on the couple and it's so cute and lovely (◍•ᴗ•◍)❤
The artwork is adorable! (◍•ᴗ•◍)✧*。...more
I listened to the audiobook version from audible. I really like this narrator, she brings the characters to life so well, and especially the male onesI listened to the audiobook version from audible. I really like this narrator, she brings the characters to life so well, and especially the male ones. At first I found the story somehow dumb and some traits of the protagonist weren't very likeable (SPOILER
like her reaction to the professor rejecting another student's work and her writing hir in message to fk off),
but later the story progressed in an interesting way. I liked reading the characters' stories unravel in the academy setting, mostly because I'm somewhat familiar with some parts of this environment and would like to learn more about it. I loved Adam as a character. Mostly because it's my idea of what my type in guys is like. He had this mysterious aura which I love. He was hated by the mass for being unapproachable but is actually very kind when he lets you get to know him. He is successful in science ect ect.
Olivia's character was not particularly to my liking, because overly nervous characters make me also feel nervous. However she contrasted well and made a good pair with Adam's character from the beginning of the story. I had to stop myself from facepalming each time she chose to tell a lie instead of the truth, or at least one version of it. I feel uncomfortable about lies, however, they can create plot lines that wouldn't exist in another way, so there's that. Lies is also how this whole fake-dating story begins.
Overall I enjoyed this read, and the lgbtq representation, and the justice received for the harassment that took place. It ended satisfyingly and it was a funny and smooth ride....more

I loved the realThis is the first gay book I read, and it is so beautiful! The couple has its hardships and we get to know what true love feels like. I loved the realistic approach to the matter (the feelings for each other, not the matter of politics) and the fact that the difficulties reflect and represent real life lgbtq+ relationships. At least on some level.
