Why This Must Be Read: There are some authors that I just want to rec over and over again because they see something in the characters so perfectly that everything the write is gold. The Spike is one of them. She captures the rawness of Rodney, all the little emotional scrapes and bruises that make him the man he is today in a way that will make your heart hurt. She can invoke your sense of pathos like nobody else.
The contrasts in this story between his firsts and lasts, the way things really happened and how he tells the stories, the highs and the lows of his life are gorgeous and so real that you just know that's exactly how it happened. This story has quite possibly the most spot on Rodney losing his virginity story I've ever read. At the end of the story you will love Rodney more than you love him before you read it and that's the best thing I think I could say about any story.
