Review: Self-Indulgence, Self-Deprciating, Self-Discovery - A recent cultural critic I adore posted this book with the caption “This is the book hot gays are going to be holding around New York.” Two more people I follow posted about it that week. I ordered. Throughout the rather short page count, the story of Gordon’s hunt for attention, in superficial and meaningful ways, left me gutted. The quips placed throughout helped soften the blow, but as I type this having finished a few hours ago, I feel different. Not that a weight has been lifted off my shoulders, but instead shifted to allow myself to re-examine what is the weight’s purpose. An erotic, messy, gay protagonist who is unapologetically an erotic, messy gay. Truly tremendous.
Review: It's not what you think it is! - The cover doesn't give away the plot.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Its good
*by J***K on August 26, 2025*

This felt like a spotty read. The protagonist is very loosely developed at the beginning and it feels like his atributes are understood by other characters in the book before I, the reader was clued in to who this person was through the narrative. Even with this loose deceleration of the character you feel hid worthiness to others in the book. Though I mostly didn't like the protagonist, I did find myself invested in his arc. It was a sometimes difficult arc to witness but who he became in the end seemed authentic in its growth with still some human flaw.
