    A proper goodbye
  

*by D***Y on Reviewed in the United States on May 22, 2019*

Jace Holden is a truly wonderful person who does not deserve any negative thing he has ever experienced.  This book moved me in so many ways.  I cried several times during reading and after.  Never in my life have I had a piece of media affect me this way.  Its very difficult to read knowing how the story will end after Summer.  Nonetheless I was so thankful to get to spend more time with Jace and uncover who he was before we met him with Ben.  What a great person he was and it made his ending so much more impactful.  Love is an important theme in these first two books of the Something Like... Series and Jace Holden is full of it.  Having experienced it in so many forms throughout his life it's hard to believe that the person we meet in the beginning of this book becomes the man that so many would fall in love with.  Jace is by far my favorite character in the series so far and although I loved every minute of reading this book the closer I got to the end the more somber I became.  This wonderful person was going to be gone and each page brought me closer to that fateful day.  The trials and tribulations of Jace and Victor are something that I was all too familiar with.  It's tough to love someone who cannot love you in the way you need.  Greg and Michele was a wonderful side story and the contrast of the deep relationship that Jace has with his family and the distance that I felt with Ben and his family is a great experience.  I wasn't super close with my family so the amount of love that Jace receives is incredible to see throughout the story.  Jace Holden was loved and he was able to get that one thing he wanted out of life. Taken way to soon and I will always be upset about the ending of his story.  I am glad however that I got to experience the joy of getting to know him as a character and it felt like I was able to say goodbye by the end of this book.

    Autumn Brings Change and With It Hope
  

*by W***O on Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2013*

I am honored to be the first or one of the first people to write a review of this superb book.  Something Like Autumn is an equal among Something Like Summer and Something Like Winter.  It deserves a seat next to them.  Jay Bell was the first LGBT author I ever read and my first read was Something Like Summer that was bought on my kindle a couple of years ago.  I've become an avid fan and the Something Like Summer series has been my gold standard to all other gay literature since.  I was not sure what to think when I found out a few weeks ago that Jay Bell was writing Something Like Autumn.  I had more than loved Something Like Summer/Winter and I was unsure of what story was left to tell about Tim and Ben except for their future.  Though Tim and Ben are featured in Something Like Autumn, this book is dedicated to Jace, the man that was able to win the heart of Ben from the ridiculously handsome Tim Wyman.  We know from other books in the series that Jace is a "saint", calm, collected, and seemingly always in control of his emotions.  In this book, we see that is not always the case and come to understand what events took place that shaped Jace into the amazing person Ben fell in love with.  We are introduced to his fantastic friend Greg, his loving parents, his wonderful sister Michelle, his guardian angel Benard, and the free loving Victor.  They each were an important element in forming Jace and were superbly written.  Most importantly, we got to see Jace's point of view and his reactions to Tim disrupting the "perfect" relationship that Jace and Ben had.  We are privileged to see his thoughts, hear his words, and connect emotionally with Jace.This book, by far, has been the most emotionally charged filled in the series, in my opinion.  I absolutely love the story of Tim and Ben, but ironically, my life has literally been parallel with Jace's.  I recently came out three years ago at 28 years old only because my first love, like Jace's first love, met the same fate.  This book was emotionally difficult for me to read and I cried numerous times throughout it because his life was just too eerily similar to my own and yet I love the life Jace lived.  Jay Bell's insight into love is accurate and precise.  It is true that you never stop loving someone even when you love someone else and this is an important lesson that Jace learns about life.  Since we all know Jace eventually dies from the other books in the series, I would have to say that Jay Bell, a master author of love and its tragedies, was able to make this book not simply about the inevitable death of Jace, which was a difficult task because you already know the Jace's fate, but simply because Jay Bell was still able to make Jace's death a tearful surprise.  In the end we learn that Jace's life is the perfect example of "Amor Vincit Omnia", Love Conquers All.If you are fan of the Something Like Summer series, then Something Like Autumn is a must read.  I hope this review is helpful to you and that you come to the same conclusion that I did after reading this book, that life is definitely not easy, but love exists and it is the most powerful force in the universe.  Something Like Autumn was released at a perfect time in my life and truly represents the season of Autumn, which givs us hope that when summer ends, we live through the love formed during the warm summer nights and rise to meet new ones to be formed during the cooling Autumn days.  Finally, to the author Jay Bell, I know that when a person writes something, he will never know the complete impact of his writings.  Just know, your books have given me hope.  Homosexuality is promoted as promiscuous every where you look and yet your able to write the exact vision I see of gay love when I read about Ben, Tim and Jace.  With all my heart,  Thank You Very Much!

    A rough trip down this memory lane...
  

*by R***Y on Reviewed in the United States on September 13, 2020*

I have never been one to go to the final chapter and read it first. There was always a need for the natural progression of the story. “Something Like Summer” was like reading the final chapter of this book. I didn’t realize the connection was so intense. Now, I’m sad again, but I’m hooked. The character perspectives written in separate novels is ingenious... I can’t wait to roll back the clock and go back to Texas. I’m sure my emotions will fire up as I recall what I’ve seen from Ben’s perspective, but I’m totally hooked... maybe I will eventually need intervention. But, for now, Texas, here I come... again!
