BIG LOVE by Rick R. Reed

3 Stars


Learning to love oneself.

This book is less a romance and more an exploration of different stages of self-acceptance from a tormented teen to a middle-aged man remembering and unlocking who he hid away years ago. I was expecting more romance and the surprise suicide issues threw me a bit, I just know way too many f@#king people who've gone down this road, walked it with them, and grabbed hold as they teetered to really enjoy any story that features it--in fact, I generally avoid them. So, my rating may not be reflective of what others will take away. 

That said, the steadfastness and optimistic ending definitely worked for me.
