About this deal

Boys and girls would have 100% have had practice together -- Kavya *never* seems to be at practice when Sean is. Keir Starmer (19 October 2022). "Engagements". Parliamentary Debates (Hansard). Vol.720. Parliament of the United Kingdom: House of Commons. col.679 . Retrieved 24 October 2022. Jason June tells the story of the merfolk Crest who has to spend one month on land (under the name Ross) and help a human, as part of the Journey, an ancient mer tradition. Said human happens to be Sean, the dreamy, chubby, lifeguard/school swimmer/wanna-be film director who got dumped by his boyfriend.

When angels start falling from the sky, it seems like the world is ending. Smashing down to earth at extraordinary speeds, wings bent, faces contorted, not a single one has survived. a b c d e Ivers, Charlotte (13 November 2022). " Out of the Blue by Harry Cole and James Heale: The Implosion of Liz Truss". The Times. London . Retrieved 16 December 2022. Broxton, Anthony (1 December 2022). "The lessons of Liz Truss's political obituary". Tribune . Retrieved 16 December 2022.I only have a few reasons why this book didn't quite make it to five stars: the sibling relationship between Jaya and Rani - I could've spent more time on how they don't have much in common, what it's like to be the eldest, etc. I felt like the lyricism of the story as a whole was beautifully sustained, but there were some paragraphs that stood out as more purple than the rest, which really threw me off, but I'm not the biggest fan of that style of writing, so I'm sure it's actually a pro for more people!

I thought the characters were all so well-written! I loved how Sean’s body type may not have been the typical slim swimming body, and I loved his confidence in himself. Sean was realistic in his over-dramatic inner monologue and propensity to declare the end of the world as soon as one thing didn’t go his way, because honestly, what is more teenager-y than that? He read like a 16yo boy, and I really liked that. I also didn't like the ending, or how long it took Sean to grow any kind of a conscience, but instead of spoiling anything, I'll skip to the biggest thing that simply did not allow me to vibe with this book: Another gripe that I had with the book overall (which is also why I would not classify it as Fantasy) is that the Beings are never really explained. I know some people are not bothered by Fantasy elements like this but I always end up being a little frustrated. I wanted to know where the Beings come from, why the Beings are falling and all that. If you're looking for answers, this is not the book for you. I was invested enough in the overall storyline and characters to still find a lot of enjoyment in the story but I'm not gonna lie – it's frustrating. Some aspects of the novel that made this a 4 star instead of a 5 star: some miscommunication that I felt was pretty unavoidable and near, close but not quite cheating? Seems like a bit of a pattern seeing as this was also employed in Jay's Gay Agenda. I also thought the writing could've been better, though I found myself pretty satisfied with the writing as is. From Jason June, author of the breakout teen debut novel Jay’s Gay Agenda, comes Out of the Blue, a stand-alone dual POV queer rom-com that asks if love is enough to change everything you’ve grown up believing. Perfect for fans of Cemetery Boys by Aiden Thomas and Deep Blue by Jennifer Donnelly.Thompson, Sophie (19 October 2022).
