There isn't really a lot of czech lgbtq+ books so I really appreciate Theo for writing it. However I must say this is not very good. The entire book felt like it was written in Britain and then translated to Czech. Nothing about it felt czech. The story felt sometimes overdramatized. The two main characters felt too good at communication for two 16 year olds. It didn't felt real. On the other hand it was an easy read that pulled me in and I finished the book in a day.
