Rory was a dick. And I hated him. And then I kinda didn't.What he realy was was lost and hurting because his best friend and childhood secret love had died, which left him angry, devastated and lashing out at anyone close enough to hurt him again. And then came Eric...Eric was also devastated, but by the recent death of his grandfather, his last living relative. Familyless, lonely and without much hope of things getting better, a kind gesture to a complete douche from his past slowly turned into something that gave his life some true meaning.As Eric gradually navigated his way through Rory's porcupine personality, they worked their way to a real friendship that they both so desperately needed into something much more. Forgiveness, for past sins. Friendship, shared by lonely souls. And Family, to heal and move forward.The scene at the end where they both finally let go in order to move on together was very touching and worth reading the book on that merit alone. 4.5 stars. Picked this up for free from Amazon.I have only read one of the previous books in this series. Love that it's set in New Zealand. The two boys are so different. And their voices show this clearly. Rory is lost and desperate for peace. Eric knows what he needs to do to move on with his life, but it's too easy to keep procrastinating.It's funny and moves smoothly to its inevitable conclusion, and all the way, I was cheering for this pair.Very enjoyable.
