Sam and Hank met as high school juniors and hit it off almost immediately. Their bond of friendship continues to grow stronger during college, until Sam makes a scary discovery about himself: he's been batting for the wrong team. Unable to confess his suspicions to anyone, especially ladies' man Hank, Sam takes a job in Denver after graduation, far enough away from everyone he knows to give himself plenty of time and space to figure things out on his own. Although Sam and Hank stay in touch while they're apart, it takes three long years for Sam to finally realize that his decision to move away came at too high a price. Craving the company of his family and friends again--especially Hank--Sam decides to put in for a transfer back home. When Hank finds out that Sam is moving back, he insists his longtime friend move in with him. Against his better judgment, Sam agrees, and he immediately finds himself in a constant battle to keep his secret under wraps.… (mer)

First read: 3 stars ( )
  Marlobo | Dec 24, 2022 |
This is a review of a second read of [b:An Inconvenient Hankering|6347444|An Inconvenient Hankering|Sienna Bishop|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1328309526s/6347444.jpg|6533859] in June, 2014. My first read of the book was in summer 2011. I originally gave it 5 stars but dropped it down to 3 stars after re-reading it.

Hank and Sam had been best friends and constant companions/roommates since they were 16 years old. While in collage, they share a small dorm room and start a habit of bringing home girls at the same time and having sex with them a few feet apart from each other. Pretty soon Sam realizes he is more interested in watching Hank have sex with his girl than he is having sex with his own girl.

Sam and Hank continue living with one another throughout collage, eventually moving into an apartment together and Sam begins to suspect he is gay as the usual collage girls aren't doing it for him anymore, but listening to Hank and his girls through paper thin walls is enough to put his libido into overdrive. He decides he needs to move far away from Hank and his family to figure out for himself if he is actually gay or not.

So, after graduation, he takes a job in another state, experiments with men and accepts he is gay, but continues to stay in the closet with Hank and his family.

SO FRUSTRATING! And at this point, Sam wasn't even all that hung up on Hank. He had what he called a "collage crush" on Hank, but he was able to get over that pretty easily and continue to keep Hank as his dearest friend and keep their relationship close even hundreds of miles away.

Eventually, he can't handle being away from home anymore and decides to move back. Instead of being a grownup (he is 26 by now) and coming out to Hank and his friends and family, he continues to hide and almost ruins his friendship with Hank by moving in with him again (the hell?) and acting all weird and shit. After 7 months living with Hank again, he is now in love with him. (No shit!)

So, I was able to fog over some of these quirks 3 years ago but not now. I still liked the story, but Sam just about drove me crazy with how he handled everything so I definitely didn't enjoy the story nearly as much as I did after the first read. I can only recommended this one to extremely hardcore GFY fans. Others, you'll have much better luck elsewhere.
