This was so cute! Excellent representation and great storytelling. My only real complaint is that narrative voice is very YA, which was hard to get into as a 25-year-old reader. That’s not an objective flaw at all—this book is very clearly for a younger demographic—but it did impact my personal reading experience.

absolute banger of a book. I'm so glad I finally decided to read it for sapphic September and I'm mad at myself for taking so long to have read it.

this was an amazing coming of age, romantic sapphic love story of finding you should not be ashamed of who you are and who you love. those that matter don't mind, and those that mind don't matter.

i wouldn’t have ever picked this up if it weren’t a book club pick since i know this type of YA just isn’t for me anymore, but i had a decent enough time with it. i do like that it shows a perspective that isn’t always typical in queer teen books. a pretty solid story all around, cute and cheesy yet also touching on some darker topics in a sensitive and age-appropriate way.

this book healed something in me that I didn’t know needed to be healed 😂😭 I laughed and cried so much reading this book. I adore Yami so much, she was such a fun MC. Yami and Bo were so sweet and cute, I really enjoyed their relationship.

I loved Cesar so much and how he and Yami always had each other’s backs. And the arc about Cesar’s mental health was devastating and I just want to give him a hug 😭😭. The situation with Yami’s parents was heartbreaking but it made me so happy to see their mom come around in the end. The emphasis on love and family despite what they were all taught was really special to me.

This book deals with heavy subjects but it has the right amount of levity and comic relief. I honestly could not put this down and read it in one sitting. I’m so glad that there are more books about all kinds of queer experiences now that teens have access to. And to anyone that struggled with their identity or queerphobia in school I think this book is also for you.
