This book is so much fun. The writing is super funny, the characters are complex but likeable, and I just had a ball reading it. Absolutely adding David Yoon books to my TBR. I felt like the book had the comfort and fun of a Hallmark movie, while also being messy and believable and showing some really beautiful moments of male friendship and complicated sibling relationships. The ONLY thing I didn't love was the line that "alcohol is for victims." Feels a little victim-blamey and took me out of my love affair.
Graphic: Bullying
Moderate: Classism, Emotional abuse, and Alcohol
Minor: Grief, Racism, Sexual content, and Alcoholism
Add this to your list for a cleansing breath book to follow a really intense one.
