He has in fact given up on it entirely and is ready to end it all. But when things don't go as planned, he gets the second chance he quickly realizes he wanted all along. And when he meets Victor, a rebel with a capital 'R', he begins to think that he might even be able to hope for more than he'd ever imagined. But he soon learns that people want different things out of life and it's not just about finding someone you love and who loves you back, but someone whose life is completed by having you in it. This is the story of Jace before he met Ben in Something Like Summer and overlaps some with the events of that book. I...don't even know where to begin. I've read the previous two books so I knew how Jace's story ends, but this is such an adventure that I was gripped to every page and every word as I read it. It was great to get a deeper understanding of Jace, since we really only see him through Ben's eyes (and a bit through Tim's) and don't get to see his perspective previous to this. And understanding his past, his history with Victor, and everything else, adds a layer to his story with Ben that isn't there in the previous installments. Content warning: suicide Man..... What a lovely book. Three months ago I've read Something like Summer and ended up with a raging fury and a broken heart. Now, Jace's life story and POV for the events from Something like Summer were like a balm. If I were to compare the two books, Something like Summer was like a storm, while Something like Autumn was like a single violin playing in the moonlight. Just like Jace's personality. And the song I kept hearing was Kreutzer's Violin Sonata No 9. He was always my favorite. #TeamJace Forever.
"Love can appear unexpectedly: a chance meeting at a friend's wedding, the arrival of a handsome new co-worker...or while being robbed at a convenience store. For some, love seems an impossible dream. Growing up gay in small-town Missouri, Jace Holden thought his chance would never come. When he meets Victor--a wild soul and fellow outsider--his chances of finding love go from bleak to a very uncertain maybe. Bracing his heart, Jace chases after his desire, hoping for a warm hand to hold his tight."-- Page [4] of cover. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

More than most novels of this type, this one had a genuine feel of authenticity more like it was a set of biographies than of fiction. The characters seem real, the incidents are believable, and there is no sugarcoating the many difficult things that are typical of real life experiences.
Personally I struggled with the character of Victor and still don’t find his lifestyle credible for someone his age, and while that might be a major flaw in most books, this one is too good to let it get in my way. It is simply a wonderful. ( )
