it does do this annoying thing where it’s continual pop culture references, sometimes more than once/pg. yes, we get it: you know abt buzzfeed and fashion snafus and the like. can you give us plot pls 😭
it also has pretty intense internalized fatphobia, which i should’ve thought to look up b4hand. if you’re excited for an mlm read where the narrator isn’t working through continual fatphobia/thinking he’s so ugly because he’s overweight (like i was excited for), you will not find it here. it felt like we traded no conflicted feelings abt being gay for conflicted feelings/internalized fatphobia.
that being said, still a wonderfully cute book; sappy and happy
