A quick story that is great on audiobook. Yang covers heavy topics, such as grooming and rape. Both of the characters have unique lives. They were great main characters. I think this is a great book for those who are the 'ya age.'

Gossip Girl style read made authentic by the author’s own experiences. Easy read about difficult topics. I was invested despite the difficulty of defining the different characters’ voices. A worthwhile read for age 14+
