This is one that gave me mixed feelings. I won't give spoilers, but I will say that this is not a gay story. I've read some reviews, and some people are projecting what they want it to be, but it's not what I thought it was going to be. Basically, when one guy saves the other's life from a burning building they become friends. Over time they become best friends and decide to become roommates. One of them is gay and probably does have feelings for the other. The roommate's orientation is never revealed. They also have a third roommate as well. This story jumps around through time and many story elements are never resolved, they just time-jumped ahead. While the one main character was gay, it was not really important to the story and it wasn't a 'gay' story, it just happened to have a gay guy in it. It was also not a love story, nor a happy story. It was a sad, depressing story of tragedy and struggle that was unrelenting. Some characters don't survive to the end, and for those that do they are subjected to mental anguish over what they had to endure. If you are looking for a sad, depressing bromance, this is for you. If you are looking for a gay story, romance or happy story - this is not any of those.
