All his partner wants is sex from him but he wants an actual relationship. His partner abuses him and toys with him and one day the mc meets a guy named Diego, who is like his true love. It's such a fucking good book. you HAVE to read it, it made me cry and laugh and ohhhh my god
Maybe Aristotle and Dante discover the secrets of the universe? The story is so good & full w angst

Hi there, I'm looking for book suggestions (not manga but if you know a similar plot feel free to tell me)
I'm a sucker for love stories, but more of a kind where there is a depressed main character who gets dragged out of their darkness by their soon to be partner, I also like detailed love scenes so even if there may be sex scenes I'm cool with that (there doesn't have to be some tho). Can be about a straight or gay couple, I don't mind either. I'm not looking for any book in particular, but if you know some with such kinda plot, I'd like to know!
Thanks in advance :-)
