 I adored this nerdy YA romance that also manages to address issues such as racism, classism, misogony and cyberbullying. The misogony and gatekeeping in the gamer world, especially in masculine dominated games is huge. I loved how the book addressed this.

Divya and Aaron are both so adorable and relatable. The blossoming romance between the two is adorable yet awkward, which led to plenty of humorous scenes.

This is definitely one I'd recommend, especially to fellow gamers.
