HOLY HELL. RTC but Alice Osman has done it again: she wrote another one of my all-time favorite books.

I related a lot to the main character’s high school experience which made this a really emotional read. The only thing I didn’t really like was the kids having to solve everything on their own with minimal adult support (though the MC’s mom was amazing).

Ich habe dieses Buch innerhalb eines Tages gelesen. Sobald ich einmal angefangen hatte konnte ich es nicht mehr weglegen.
Auch wenn die Charaktere jünger sind als ich, konnte ich zu ihren Struggles noch immer sehr gut relaten.
I fucking envy the relationship between Aled and Frances. And love the relationship of Frances and her mother.
Ich mag alles an dem Buch. Auch wenn es eigentlich die ganze Zeit bergab geht steht man am Ende nicht hoffnungslos da and i really liked that.
Alle Probleme wurden so schon relatable dargestellt.
All in all einfach sehr erfrischend ein young Adult Buch zu lesen, in dem nicht alles wie kompletter Bullshit erscheint.
(Habe actually am Ende bissle geweint. War alles too close to home..)
(Second read: damn, gerade meine alte Review gelesen und ja ich glaube I was really going through shit als ich es zum ersten Mal gelesen habe.
Well, das ist wahrscheinlich immer noch so ups)

It felt like reading a long lost diary. It's personal, it's nerdy, it's... everything I could have ever asked in a book. While it did put me in a weird headspace, I'm still grateful to have found it. It's like being hugged. It's like being understood.

This book was pretty underwhelming since my expectations were high oops lol. Maybe its because I've read 'I was born for this' first and didn't enjoy it either.
