5.0

I got this book from NetGalley and devoured it in one sitting. I absolutely loved the characters and their development as the story progressed. Both Leighton and Dylan felt realistic thanks to their flaws and character motivations. The art style was stunning, and I adore the repeating image motif of the paper planes in this very transitionary point in their young life. I wish I had a book like this growing up because of its high stakes and amazing representation of both an ace character and a nonbinary character. Can’t recommend this book enough!!!!
