Über diesen Titel

A RIOTOUSLY FUNNY NOVEL FROM KING OF THE MODERN ROM-COM JUSTIN MYERS

'Hugely entertaining' VERONICA HENRY
'Snappy, sharp, perceptive, and brim-full of wit and heart' JULIE COHEN
'Ferociously funny' DAISY BUCHANAN

Leo's content to be in the background, letting his louder, more charismatic best friends shine. For a thirty-something gay people-pleaser, it's always been safer that way.

But, suddenly, a gorgeous love interest from the past steps out of the wings, Leo's pushed to his limits by his overenthusiastic new boss and—strangest of all—he begins to question whether the friends he loves so dearly have been holding him back.

For the first time ever, the spotlight is on Leo. But a spotlight reveals everything. And now all the things Leo has hidden away in darkness are in full focus. If he's to get everything he's ever wanted, Leo will need to face his past, and the future, head on. But he might not like everything he sees.

Though the author is heralded as the master of gay romcoms, this is the most unromcommy tale of relationship disasters imaginable. Till the final twist brings it back „on track“, sort of, 3 minutes before the end. Yes, it’s great to address the topic of alcoholism in gay culture and also that of psychologically manipulating boyfriends. But this doesn’t really qualify as a „problem novel“, like YOUNG MUNGO (also set in Scotland). And even YOUNG MUNGO has an intense love story at its core that is lamentably absent here … The Scottish accent of the narrator is charming, though, even if main character Leo is not so endearing most of the time. And seems positively clueless far too long. Not in a good/funny way. I personally enjoyed earlier novels by Justin Myers much more, and found this one rather labored.
