This was a great freshman novel from Ana Reichardt. (Yes, I chose the word freshman because they are in college.)
Bailey Sullivan has been awarded a scholarship to Alder University, a Catholic University, from her church. She is generally apathetic towards school, and her has trouble finding her place. When she makes a connection to another closeted student, one of her suitemates Noelle, she starts to grow and heal. This is one of those books where you are forced to remember that for a lot of people being gay still comes with consequences. As someone whose wife has told them all about growing up in a very Catholic house, in relation to their coming out, my heart broke for these girls.
This is a true coming out story of a young gay person finding their place in world ,and how to live in it.
