At some points it did slow down a bit too much for me and I grew bored. I don’t think I was hooked enough for how long the story was. But then there was also parts where I devoured the pages.

And that’s just one story-thread; Elsie is also uncovering her own family secrets, rekindling a relationship with an old friend, dealing with a past toxic relationship, and trying not to neglect her current best friend in the process. All in the summer between graduation and starting uni. Definitely a stand-out in YA queer contemporary!
