Straight Expectations | Calum McSwiggan

2 posts | 2 read

Seventeen-year-old Max has always been out and proud. But every time he looks around his small school, he sees straight couples everywhere. It's everything he's ever wanted for himself, but there are few queer boys to choose from. When his frustrations get the better of him, he lashes out at his best friend, Dean, and wishes he had what everyone else has. And he wishes they'd never been friends.

Straight Expectations | Calum McSwiggan

so-so

Callum McSwiggan‘s speculative YA LGBTQ+ romance is an okay read filled with out and proud characters but Max‘s confrontation of his privilege and belief that the straights have things easier is unconvincing as Max is always fairly self-obsessed character while his friendship with Dean is more tell than show. That said, the romance is sweet, I liked Dean and Alicia as side characters and the plot has a lot of pace and energy to it.
