Wow.
There is a strange sub-genre of books that makes me feel the weirdest things I have trouble putting into words. L.I.F.E. fits into this category. I've never had what these character have. No American high school, friends galore, lockers, gym coaches, and all that jazz. I never fit in and not just because I'm queer. Funnily enough, I never even had anyone to come out too during my high school years. So to me books like L.I.F.E. are quite personal because they are something I very much regret never having. L.I.F.E. encapsulates perfectly those things in an absolutely amazing way.
But that's not the only reason why L.I.F.E. left me a crying mess. A few books reach that 5/5 rating for me because there is something I miss in them. And that something is present in abundance here. It's something I am unable to quite put into words for it tends to me little more than a feeling born deep within me when I'm reading. If it's there, I know I truly and genuinely love the book I'm reading. Took a few chapters and I was enamored filled with this fuzzy warm feeling until I finished the last chapter.
In the end, I can't rate L.I.F.E. anything but 5/5! How could I? I finished it in a day and almost in a single sitting if not for a delicious BBQ by the pool (thanks for asking).
I know this is Felyx Lawson's debut. If I hadn't known I'd think he has been writing for years. I cannot wait for L.I.F.E. Too. (No... I'm serious. I cannot wait; give sequel now!) I'm certain that either Felyx will be a NYT Best Selling Author in a few years or the world isn't fair. (Those are just straight gay facts!)
