5.0
Such a fun and original book. I enjoyed every minute of it and didn't see all the twists and turns coming.
Moderate: Death, Abandonment, Death of parent, Sexual content, and Bullying
Minor: Alcohol, Racism, and Homophobia
For the racism and homophobia content warnings they refer to a character who briefly appears who they are unsure if he is racist, homophobic, or both - it did seem to be both. The main characters in this book are wonderfully diverse, hence the other character's issue with them.
One of the MCs does offer alcohol to the other on multiple instances, but it's not lingered on. Death does come up fairly often during the book, so keep that in mind. Additionally, there is some sexual content, but it is fade to black.
The next set of warnings does require some spoilers: .
