Okay so maybe cheating? I found a 101 page M/M romance. A nice quick piece of fluff that I took to the launderette with me and read in two hours. It was pleasant, simple plot but enjoyable. So that's it. 50 books in a year. I guess I should get back to writing so maybe my target next year will be only 40 or 45. This will give me a chance with some longer and more difficult texts too. Though 50 has been fun.I hope you all enjoyed your reading year as much as I did. This starts out a little slow, until David starts taking a bit more control of his life. He is such a sweetheart. I just wanted things to be better for him. I loved Cole. While he did upset me a bit a time or two, I really liked his character overall. I also understood and liked how Cole put David off until he was more solid in his new life as a gay man. Cole's friends were ok, though Sasha's licking issue was a bit icky. What I didn't like was how slow things were moving, until, suddenly they jump ahead and then its over. I would have definitely liked to have seen more about their relationship after they decided to give it a go, both for themselves and the other people in their lives. While I liked much of this story, the ending felt very rushed.I was extremely disappointed when this ended at 86%. 14% of a book talking about other books with long excerpts for each is excessive. To add insult to injury, one of the books mentioned, with excerpt included, is this very book!
What do You think about Room To Grow (2012)?
Really good story. Nice and believable MC development. 3D characters.
