Samuel Alexander did an excellent job with this new adult fantasy depicting the struggles as youth mature into adulthood. His dive into mental illness, familial abuse, and suicide resonated with my memories of those turbulent years!

This story was not what I expected and I had to sit with it for awhile after reading it. To be honest I don't know if I would call it a love story. Bryan is a young man, dealing with depression who suffers two earth shattering events. This story offers amazing insight into the way that he struggles to build a life with his friends and family. I really hope there is a part two coming. I want to know more about what happens to him.

A story of depression and the journey to becoming whole. This story should be required reading for anyone working with at risk LGBTQ Youth.

This was not the right book for me. I struggle a lot while reading it.  I liked what the blurb said about it, I found the idea very interesting, but I don't really think it end up being what I expect.

I felt the plot was a little unclear. I had no idea where the story was going. I didn't find the main characters particularly likable, but that wasn't really a big issue for me. There were a few secondary characters that seem nice, but since they were only secondary, they didn't have much of a spot light.

What I didn't liked about it were to things. First, the lack of emotion. I felt nothing. The book deal with strong emotions that should have make me feel the pain the main character was feeling, and yet, I felt nothing. Second, I think it took too lightly some very sensitive subject. Sometimes even jokingly. And I get it, I do think is good to try to turn such darkness into something else, but I dont think it was executed well enough. There was also too much self loathing represented in a way that didn't actually transmit the emotion.

Overall it just wasn't right for me. I am not particularly sensitive, and even then, I found some parts if it a bit bothersome. I guess other reader could be able to like it, but for me just didn't fill my expectations.

this one was very dark and depressing 😢 it just wasn't the story for me... it was very tough to get through.

This is like a Greek tragedy! I could never imagine this happening for real. I like my books a little more upbeat!

Delusional Love was not for me. I read the entire thing, which I truly regret.
To clarify, I read the blurb, and I looked at the book information (product details) on Amazon before deciding to read this. For some reason, it is listed as a romance when there is absolutely nothing romantic about this book. I did expect some hard reading, but not to the extent the author pushed this (without much rhyme nor reason).
There are so many parts of this book that I found objectionable that I get tired just thinking of writing them all down for this review. Suffice it to say, I did not feel anywhere in these pages that the author had any respect for actual mental illness. Or the life of children. Or the sensibilities of the readers.
I will not be reading more from this author.

It's frightening how well the author pulls you into the world of a seriously depressed young man. The things that catch you aren't the big, dramatic ones, but the small everyday things where you suddenly realize everything isn't ok and might never be. I don't want to say too much about this one. It's best if you meet all these characters on their own terms as they present themselves and get to know them like you do people in real life. There will be hope, despair, disappointment a full range of feelings sometimes all at the same time. Not an easy read and not one to rush through but very moving.
