It’s a cute book if you want something light, but it’s not revolutionary. It is a cute wlw book & it deals with the struggles of being gay. I read it all in one sitting and I did enjoy it quite a bit.
I would have given this a high rating if the characters didn’t feel like they didn’t have any dimensions.
The characters made decisions that seniors in high school would make. But occasionally the decisions felt odd, or not like an actual 17/18 year old.

Their love story is full of roadblocks, some within their control, some within their circles. I’m glad most of the student body is relatively supportive of the LGBTQIA community (or at least the ones that the book focused on).
