Oh this was slow as hell. I'd have zero complaints if the slowness was used to build up their relationship and give us scenes of them getting to know each other but we got nothing of the sort. Their entire relationship, as far as I could see, was founded on attraction and sex and Santi was clearly written for Ander, as a way to make him 'better'/abandon his prejudices and I wasn't here for it.

The ending also really pissed me off. Ander's parents should have actually parented this boy. Him dropping opportunities to follow a boy was so unserious to me.

The book though is chock-full of Mexican culture, food, music and even though I had to Google translate all the Mexican sentences (roughly 30% of the book...there was a lot), it was interesting to read
