I did enjoy the book though. I was wholeheartedly rooting for Yami the entire time.
There were some moments that really took me out the book though.. The fortnite dancing?? I wish the editor had put their foot down on that one.

A lot happened in this story but it didn't feel rushed or laid on too thick, more like enough to keep me engaged and motivated to keep reading. I'd definitely recommend for anyone who enjoys LGBTQ+ fiction, or who likes YA selectively because they sometimes get annoyed by immature characters.

hannahgarstang's review against another edition
I really loved the discourse around coming out and how it should always be on your own terms and that we don't owe other people that info.
I also thought the conversations around cultural identity were handled really well.
This book touched on so many difficult issues around race, sexuality and mental health. It did this while also being funny and even quite fluffy at times. I wish I'd been able to read something like this as a young adult/teen.
