Wren Martin Ruins It All is one of my new favorites. It was such a well-written and comforting read. The humor of this was so good, the characters and the friendships were amazing. I loved Wren and his questionable yellow plaid fashion.
The ace rep was so good! Wren already knew he was asexual and just having that be a casual fact about him was really nice to read, showing he could simply exist. Having an asexual main character AND even an aromantic side character was very exciting to me since half the time people don’t even differentiate the two.
This book dealt with Wren finding out what to do with the rest of his life, finishing high school, and finding a plan for his future. It dealt with grief and surviving past the worst day of his life when he didn’t think he would. There were some heavy moments but for the most part this book was lighthearted, funny, and comforting.
Leo and Wren were both favorites of mine and I loved all the banter and Wren just absolutely not being able to stand the guy, meanwhile, Leo just kept showing up. It was hilarious.
Thanks to NetGalley and Peachtree Teen for the ebook ARC of this in exchange for an honest review.
