A bunch of guys get to know each other. For some of them it turns to lust, for some to drama, for some to friendship and for some to... love?

We follow Cooper who's trying to navigate his newfound interest in other guys, his studies, learns to differentiate between lust and love, learns to deal with emotions he never had to deal with before and he learns that sometimes, you have to take a risk to get what you want. Or does he learn not to take a risk because he doesn't know if he can stand the hurt that might follow?

This story is very well written and strikes a great balance between erotica and dramatic literature. The characters start off as pretty flat and one-dimensional, but the longer you read, the more they get fleshed out and become real. 

Every minute spent reading "The List" is worth it. And if you enjoy this story, I can highly recommend "The Funny Thing Is", the sequel to this story. Thank you @Jwolf for these two stories!

The List tells the story of Cooper who explores his sexuality, makes a series of silly mistakes and a few serious ones before finding his equilibrium as a young gay man.

I laughed, cried, was angry and light-hearted all at once. A well-written story with believable and endearing characters.
