 Mason Deaver, once again, serves a brilliantly written novel with characters I cannot get enough of. The Feeling Of Falling in Love follows Neil, a trans, gay teen bringing his roommate across the country to his brother’s wedding to be his fake-partner for a week. It is a cute and lighthearted romance, filled with cheesy tropes and fun. It is playful and fluffy while still tackling character growth and serious moments between characters, discussing things like identity and family. I struggle to find words to explain exactly how I felt while reading this, but it has been a long time since I was this invested in a romance and I cannot wait to read whatever Mason Deaver publishes next.
