To Read is To Live

Winter - Josh Lanyon While this starts as online-series, I decided to wait until it is officially edited and published. Simply because I hate reading online and I have no patience for WIPs. So I don't know how edited or expanded this one compared to the Wattpad's version -- all I knew was that Josh Lanyon added around 10k from the original version.I assumed that this would be a 4-stories (involved with 4 seasons) related to the couple, Flynn and Kirk. In that sense, I could take the rather abrupt ending because this was merely a beginning for the two of them. I loved Josh Lanyon's writing, that was no secret. This one was another great story. I immediately felt for Flynn -- I could sense his struggle, his depression of losing his lover Alan so suddenly. The conversation he had with Kirk about the agreement he made with his parents just touch me deep. Despite the kind of angsty set up, I could also sense Flynn's strength -- as he was determined to find out what happened with the ghost in the mirror. I was glad that there would be three more stories because I would love to see how he gradually healed and moved on.The chemistry with Kirk was not instant, in my perception. I did like the fact that they had 13 years age gap between them. Kirk also had baggage after his life as Ranger in Afghanistan (yes, it was another PTSD character, which might be one of my tiny complains). Again, I was happy that there would be more stories because I wanted to see how these two men working it out.The 'clue' in the end was a very good mystery set-up. I don't know when Josh will start writing the next series online, but again, I will just wait for the official version.
