Touched

I still can't say for sure if this is a one-shot story or if it's the beginning of a series. Goodreads tells me one thing, the book tells tells me another, I'm... Am I missing something here? I'll go with one-shot for now, if only because I can't picture a nice sequel, it pretty much ended where it did. Now... Encounter. It was a nice book, I guess. Short, which is great; read quickly, with an interesting albeit messy narrative — meaning, we had both objective descriptions of what was going on in the camera recording and long, deep insights of what the characters were thinking. I didn't care much for the romance, which was definitely a downer, but I really just couldn't understand how Ricky and Josh's friendship worked in the first place; how were they even friends? I get that the point is that they are opposites and those are attracted by each other yada yada I guess, but this? Josh was an annoying asshat all the time, Ricky didn't really seem to like him until he did, and the coming out scene... yeah. I wish we'd gotten more aliens and less crop shenanigans.
