Wow wow wow - while there were definitely some cringey moments, this story covers so many facets of growing up and growing into oneself. After reading the book I found out that the author, Becky Albertalli, came out as bisexual after much criticism by readers and others because she was writing about lgbtq+ characters when she was assumed/presumed to be heterosexual. Looking back knowing this, the book feels like it was written using many of the feelings she must have had during this time. Highly recommend to anyone and everyone.
