    Maybe it's because I read this around the same time as "People We Meet on Vacation" by Emily Henry, but if I had to choose between the two books - The Pairing is a much stronger novel and I am more invested in Theo & Kit's story. They're messy and complicated in ways I find them compelling. In a way their rough edges fit together perfectly like puzzle pieces. While the book was a little slow for me in the beginning, once I really found my pace with it I have completely fallen in love with it. I appreciate that McQuiston isn't just trying to re-create "Red, White and Royal Blue" to rake in the same success! They're telling a whole other story, but has picked up stronger prose and storytelling since writing their previous success. I feel like this book should been getting the buzz that "Red, White and Royal Blue" did!!!!

    I'm curious. I'm reading the book in Italian and when Theo speaks, he uses neutral, femela and male pronouns. Is this the original, or does Theo use only they/them?
