5.0

I LOVE THIS BOOK i started listening to the audiobook (because I’d just finished heartstopper series and craved more content) and I ended up loving it so much. There’s not a single moment I’m bored! It just keep me interested all the way through! Tori is such a relatable character like normal teenagers especially during the Tumblr era. Personally, I relate to Micheal more but I absolutely adore both of them!

Tori and Micheal’s relationship is so adorable and it makes me feel so happy to see them both finally find someone who can love them! The characters’s mental health is also very sad but it was portrayed really well in the book!

In conclusion, I’d definitely reread/re-listen to it and it’s probably one of my current fav!
