I really enjoyed this book and it might be my favorite book with an autistic coded character I’ve read. On top of the fun autistic coded characteristics I’ve seen before I loved the way the main character’s actions were handled. The main character clearly struggles with understanding the emotions of others when they are not within a context he understands. In most media I feel like this is used as an excuse for the autistic coded character to be an asshole, but book boyfriend doesn’t. When the main character messes up and behaves like an asshole, his friends tell him he was an asshole. You understand why it happend, but it isn’t treated as ok. The main character is also really kind when he does understand what he’s supposed to do/can do to help, which I really appreciated.
