If I could rate this book 10000/5 I would. It absolutely blew my socks off while at the same time warming my heart. Love the diverse characters, love Frances' character development, love queer characters being in the spotlight (and not dying) and absolutely LOVE Aled <3
If you're a burned out former bright kid, please read this, you won't regret it. Alice Oseman, you did it once again - I never reread my books, but I sure as hell will reread this one. ✨
