More Happy Than Not by Adam Silvera Review

You can't always choose who you're going to be. Sometimes you're fast enough to run track. Sometimes you're not. 

I have mixed feelings about this book. One side, I like what Adam offered but the other side I didn't really connect with the main character, Aaron, at least at the first half of this book. 

It really hard for me to get drawn over Aaron's thoughts, there are some scenes that I feel too much information, or maybe Adam's writing is just not my cup of tea. 

Put aside about the writing style, I get why everyone seems to love this book. Adam delivered so much thought about what's the struggle being gay. I enjoy more of the second half later when we got to know what was really happened before. It made so much sense. 

As for my positive note from this book is it makes you realize that you are what you are, gay or straight. You can't force someone to be the person you want to because everyone has their own preference. Aaron, Genevieve, and Thomas proved it.

Everyone plays a purpose, even fathers who lie to you or leave you behind. Time takes care of all that pain so if someone derails you, it'll be okay eventually.

Rating 3/5 stars
