A surprisingly deep YA dramedy unafraid to tackle multiple big issues. The main characters are definitely thawed and undoubtedly teenage, but not unrealistically so. They don’t solve problems perfectly and none of them are without fault; that makes all the conflict ring more realistic. A little dated in fashion and technology, but the story doesn’t revolve around either so it’s not a big deal.
