You Deserve Perfect

Find my new book here

When perfection becomes an obsession…

Isaac Toteda's life had been too good. He had two amazing best friends, a gorgeous boyfriend, and the perfect family. Everything was perfect... until he saw his boyfriend naked. Maybe he did have problems after all. From how Eric was clearly too good for him to how his own brother seemed to hate him, there was only one way to float in this sea of troubles: to become lighter. To Eric Roth, nothing makes sense. He studies a subject he hates, his father kicks him out of the house for a reason he’ll take to his grave, and his boyfriend acts like he'd prefer to drink chlorine than get intimate with him. All he knows is that Isaac's relationship with food is seriously wrong. Isaac spirals deeper and deeper in his obsession to lose weight, but how can he not? How, when his boyfriend is the most beautiful human being and he's nothing in comparison? How will he keep his Adonis without being the best version of himself? Are first times this scary for everyone? And why is it that everyone’s calling him sick lately?

This coming-of-age tale goes through topics such as fear of intimacy, insecurities, friendships, disordered eating, estranged siblings and unconditional parental love, and is one you don't want to miss.

Your eyes are like night itself, like cold unfamiliar winds rushing trough entagled forests. You have distant stars in your gaze. You seem otherworldly and as wise, honest and elegant as nature itself. You are an all or nothing creature, sacrifice polished your entire being, it painfully cut bits out of you until all that was left was an essence and a distant truthful blade sharp gaze. Life is flowing and piercing trough your fragile chest, your ribs are echoing and raging to express the art that's gathering inside you. Your entire being wants to sing and shout: I am incredibly happy to be alive, my soul is as young as it can be, so many feelings are blossoming inside me, I am above all the misery of this world, I am beautiful and unstoppable.

The school hallway lights turned off. The protagonist and their friends froze.

It was a school dance night, they were wandering around where they weren’t supposed to, and now, the lights had gone off. 

A locker behind them slammed.

edited version the “all i ask of you” art i posted earlier this week! i used a halftone filter on the finished piece, then pasted the sketch/lineart and the flat colours on top of it to get the cartoon look ♥

it would make a nice doujinshi page, don’t you think? 👀
