I looooooved this book. Everything about it. From the second I read the blurb I knew I was going to enjoy it, it has everything you could want from a YA romance. LGBTQ+ representation. Strong friendships. Best friends to lovers/forbidden love trope.
The characters are so well developed and easy to love. The plot is fantastic and there's so many serious topics covered throughout but its all handled EXTREMELY well.
Huge thank you to NetGalley and the authors for the ARC. I've already preordered my copy💜
Overall rating - 5 stars🌟
