Loved the small town vibes and coming of age queer story! This year, I started to gravitate more towards audiobooks after it took me years to find the kind of audiobooks I like. I’m happy to say I decided to listen to the audiobook first because this is the best one I’ve read! I need Hayley Kiyoko to narrate all the books from now on and for me to read more books that tell stories as atmospherically as this one did!

I really wanted to like this book more than I did but I just found so many of the relationships to be so unhealthy and not fully addressed as such :(

This song and music video held a special place in my heart and helped baby gay me, and this book does the exact same thing. It’s very cool to see the song and music video that helped me feel okay about myself become a book. I also really enjoyed that they had scenes from the music video in this book and that it was an expansion on the video.
