this book is beautiful. I would recommend it to every queer kid (especially those who struggle with mental health). it's funny and heartbreaking and oh so sweet. Yami is such a reina and I love her. the side characters are fab too and the plot moves quickly in just the right way.  TLGTCS is so deep and yet keeps it light and funny. PLEASE READ IT

This YA book is all told from a high school girls perspective so it’s definitely made for high schoolers. It’s sweet, funny, revenant and cute. It’s tough and a reminder that high school is tough. A reminder to be kind to them for me. It has some tough conversations around families and unconditional love. Highly recommend as a great read ❤️
