a cutesy teen queer romance !! i loved this book!! i wish there was a little more plot but all in all for a YA romance i loved it!!

quick and cute read, the hamilton scene took years off my life tho

I really enjoyed this book! It will be a great YA summer read! This book grapples with homophobia, coming out, and a conservative community.

I don’t know a lot about cheerleading or football (never watch the games on tv), but I really got into this book, it has great momentum.

The relationship between Jack and Amber was very fluid, but the attraction was palpable from the start. I really loved watching them grow into their feelings for each other!
emotional hopeful lighthearted reflective

Dahlia has a way of writing what I imagine my life could’ve been if I came out as a teenager. Her writing is so real and makes me feel so seen. I am transported back to (an idealistic) high school reading this book. 

This is a story of a female QB, a cheerleader & football player in a “lavender relationship “, the chaos that ensues because of the above, mixed with normal teenage high school drama.  It has a lot of heart and a lot of feels, and left me smiling and giddy at the end 💚

4/5 stars - a very cute and queer teen novel about two girls finding themselves as a conflict wedges between them. Overall very easy to read and to enjoy, but it felt weird entertaining sexual tension in high schoolers! Looking forward to reading more like it :)
