Broken Hearts & Zombie Parts

Product Information

There is plenty of humour, but also serious and sensitive moments that are handled well - you can definitely tell the author is drawing on.

But more than that, it's also incredibly moving, dealing deftly with body dysmorphia and fears when approaching a major surgery/life-changing medical event. Secrets are threatening to break the trio of friends up and the further into filming they get the tenser the situation gets.I loved how they go through with Jess Ideas, don't like everytime they about to reveal something to the other they got distracted by something it's so annoying this goes on throughout 80% of the book until the truth got revealed, anyway this was a cute coming of age book fills with insecurity and friendship theme and also internalized homophobia approached gently.

It makes you laugh, it makes you think, and it makes you cry, but most of all, it makes you feel like you're at home. A Big Gay Rom-Zom-Com with Heart: Sex Education meets Love, Simon - with fake zombies - in this savagely funny gay YA romance about body image, self-acceptance and falling in love. The problem is, he has a heart condition that will put him under a knife in 2 months, so time is of the essence. There were a couple of moments throughout the book where he either mispronounced or placed the stress on an odd part of a word or sentence, but other than that it was an excellent quality audiobook. Together with his childhood friends and new love interests he will try to juggle directing a movie, trying to find a boyfriend, the idea of heart surgery and the simple stress of being a teenager.I found this a lovely, touching, and heartwarming read and will definitely be looking to read/listen to more books from this author. I loved the novel's focus on body image / identity -- not just Jesse's own, as every single character had their own struggles with that topic. It was for me predictable at times and I knew certain things from the get go but I still enjoyed the ride and getting to know the characters on a deeper level.
