5.0

I loved this book! Amber and Jack have a nice dynamic, their relationship is not toxic - mainly they fight out of fear coming out, which, you know, it happens - as it may be in other YA lesbian romances so that’s a yay! I have read it in literally 6 hours, could not put it down! Would definitely recommend it as something lighthearted, inclusive and cute.
