Just really well written and relatable. It’s so hard to find male writers that accurately depict a non-male protagonist, but Green did a great job and focused on the humanity of April vs her gender or anything irrelevant. 

I loved that I couldn’t predict any step, everything felt new and original. Loved the casual LGBTQ+ representation, loved the twists and turns, loved how much I learned even from a fictional novel. 

I’m genuinely excited to read the next one.
