The Pairing by Casey McQuiston

2.5
My first one from this author. I appreciated the sex-positivity, but didn't love how sex-focused the whole thing was.
When reading romance, I want to feel the connection and see the solid foundation of the couple. I felt like McQuiston didn't give me enough on that account and instead relied too much on the MCs having known each other since they were children, and supplying a few snippets from their childhood.
As an adult couple, it seemed like all they thought about and all they had was sex and lust. Eventheir reunion at the end, which would have been quite beautiful, was ruined by Kit immediately wanting to fuck.
It was also around 100 pages too long, and I didn't feel as though their initial issue had been properly resolved at the end. They were still the same people as when they broke up, especially in terms ofTheo's impulsivity and rashness.
Overall, I feel let down.
