I enjoyed this book a lot.

This is the first book I’ve actually read by Addison Albright but I’ve listened to the audio book of another title. Closets Are for Clothes is kind of a coming out story.
Mike lives his life as an openly gay man in the city where he works, but back home he isn’t out to his family. When man answering his ad for a roommate turns out to be his college crush, and they hit it off, he knows that he will eventually have to come out to his family. Part of his reluctance to come out is his fear of his father’s reaction. While he was growing up comments were made that definitely gave Mike the idea that his father doesn’t approve of gays and thinks that people choose to be gay.

Wes is a medical resident and he’s very happy as Mike’s roommate and happy about their developing relationship. He’s out and proud and he doesn’t quite understand why Mike is so reluctant to come out to his family.

Closets Are for Clothes is a fairly quick read at 136 pages. I became engrossed in the story right from the beginning. There’s a twist in the story that made for an interesting dynamic with Mike’s family. I laughed in places and shed a few tears in others; especially when Mike and his dad confront the “elephant in the room.”

While this is a complete story, with a nice epilogue and an HEA for Mike and Wes, the scene is set for the next book in the series and some people might consider the ending a cliffhanger. In the strictest sense of the word, I guess the book does have a cliffhanger as there is an unsolved mystery. I very much want to read the next story in this series.
