I adored this book. Kiley Reid’s writing style and deep dive character studies just really work for me. I did not fully understand where the plot was going for a long time, but I was unbothered because that’s how much I enjoy Kiley Reid’s writing style. I will read anything she writes at this point. A queer main character was an added bonus. I found Millie and Kennedy’s chapters to be the most interesting. This book was also extremely funny (in particular chapter 13). I do think that this book will likely work better for younger adults (20 to 30 ish range) who are closer in age to the protagonists (most of whom are undergraduate students).
