I really like Alexis’ writing style. It’s quirky, funny, and really engaging. I will admit I don’t love single-person perspective stories. I like really knowing both characters, that being said, Alexis crafts a really good story.
Paris has anxiety. And there is no hiding from it in a single POV story. Through the wild antics of Paris going on a baking show, coping with dealing with people, his own insecurities, and the world of internet people, you cannot escape his anxious thoughts and self-doubts. It actually borders on uncomfortable. And though you feel for him, at times you can’t help but sympathize with Tariq when he at times is frustrated with Paris. But let me say this…it makes the 2nd half of the story extremely satisfying. And the ending, more so.
The self-growth both characters go through is very gratifying and really makes you really believe these two will go the distance.
